Five-month-old spoodle Milo suffered a fractured leg and bite marks all over his body, after he was attacked by three dogs at a Truganina dog park last month.
Milo’s owner Sophie is hoping to find the owners of the main dog involved in the attack, in the hope they will help to pay for Milo’s vet bills.
Sophie said Milo was attacked when she and her partner took him to the Vibrandia Way dog park on Sunday, May 27, about 1pm.
Sophie said soon after they entered the park, a large white dog – similar to a bull mastiff and with a square-shaped patch of fur shaved off its body – started sniffing Milo.
Sophie said that suddenly the white dog picked Milo up by his neck and within a few seconds, two other dogs came over.
“They all took a piece of him – one had his back and one had his leg,” she said.
“I was screaming, they were so vicious, I will never forget it.”
Sophie said her partner was eventually able to pick up two of the attacking dogs, getting them away from Milo.
“One dog was still on Milo, and I think the owner of the white dog came over and got the other one off,” she said.
Sophie said afterwards she and her partner were panicking about getting Milo to a vet so they did not think to ask for the details of the white dog’s owners. She said the owners of the other two dogs did not approach them.
Sophie said she reported the attack to Wyndham council.
She described the owners of the white dog as a couple, aged in their mid-30s, who appeared to be of Filipino or similar background. She said at the time of the attack, she and her partner noticed about eight “bull” type dogs, which made them think it was a meet-up of owners or a Facebook group.
