Update: Yorkie attacked by 2 bull mastiffs at dog park

Well, My mom finally got her computer fixed and was able to send me some info on the situation.

My dog was attacked this past Sunday afternoon.  I am including the information regarding Teddy and the occurrence that has placed him in the hospital. I would greatly appreciate any help you

poor puppy. =0( glad to hear he's doing better. and obviously those two dogs should not be at that dog park. i can't imagine taking an even some what dog aggressive dog to a park like that.

Oh my god...that was so painful to read, as I have a Yorkie as well. I'm always afraid to let her offleash anywhere, always looking around to see if there are any big dogs. I'm so, so, so sorry and offer all my...hope, because I'm not religious and can't pray. =( If I had my own money I'd give a thousand ♥♥♥.

Ill pass on your good wishes.

Teddy was one of my mom's early puppies. He was one of my favorites. His brothers were Tucker and Tiger (my mom has a thing for litter themes) Even though he isnt ours anymore and hasnt been since he was about 8 months old, its still painful to hear something like this happening to him. I really hope he pulls through.

I hate to see little dog owners becoming afraid of large dogs because of stories like this... Mouse ADORES small dogs. He would rather play with a Yorkie than a lab any day...

I know, of course it's rare that a big dog would actually kill a small one, but it's also Dusya who provokes it. When a dog is jumping around her, sniffing and running and barking, trying to play, she gets really irritated and snaps at them. I'm afraid that also might provoke a defensive move or something, or they might swipe her with a paw while trying to play. I have nothing against big dogs--I adore them! I grew up with a pit bull and she was a love. Just now that I have a Yorkie it's different. x] We have met one or two really gentle large dogs--it was so sweet when Dusya lay down on that big lab mix's paws =).

I'm glad hes feeling better, and I hope he makes a full recovery. Best wishes to Teddy, you and your family.

Thanks so much. Just to clarify though, Teddy is a puppy that my mom sold (she is a breeder) but we had him for about 8 months before he left us. She keeps in touch with every single family that buys one of her babies and Teddy is one in particular that I remember fondly.
