MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - A Minneapolis woman says she didn't plan onbiting a rampaging pit bull, but "that's what happened."
Amy Rice was trying to save her own dog, after a pit bull jumped
a fence into her yard and began attacking her Labrador. Rice was
afraid her dog was being killed, and she fought to pry the pit
bull's jaws away. When that didn't work, she started biting the
attacker on the nose.
Rice says she ended up with "pit bull blood" in her mouth. But
her own dog is now recovering, with some staples and stitches to
her head and a crushed ear canal.
The pit bull has been quarantined, pending rabies tests. Rice's
doctor will determine whether she'll have to undergo rabies shots.
