Shock in Kirchberg: Rottweiler bites seven -year -old girls heavily!

On New Year's Day, the seven -year -old Vivian in Kirchberg OB der Donau was attacked and seriously injured by a neighboring dog, a Rottweiler named "Ernie". Fortunately, the student suffered injuries to the shoulder, upper arm and lower leg, but did not suffer any life-threatening injuries, as the Kepler Clinic in Linz confirmed. After a successful operation, the girl has now been released from the hospital and is on the way of improvement, reports the The press .

Rottweiler under quarantine

The incident occurred as Vivian's neighbor with her dog in the garden simple commands. Suddenly "Ernie" attacked the seven -year -old, who previously knew the dog, and bit her in her fur collar. The ten -year -old daughter of the dog owner tried to stop the Rottweiler and was slightly injured. "Ernie" is now in a kennel, where he has to serve a tenth-day rabies quartan, which will soon end. It remains to be seen whether the dog is being put to sleep - the community is currently looking for a solution to avoid this, reports the Krone . The dog whose breeder would be willing to take him back could possibly have a different future.

The owners of the Rottweiler have received a complaint, and it is unclear what the legal consequences for you and your dog will look like. For the bitch, who also lives in the family, no measures are currently being taken. The incident shaked the community and the family, but the priority is now due to the well -being of the girl and the clarification of the situation around the dog.
