“I feel bad. The dog wasn’t a bad dog,” Quick said. “He was giving us kisses and then just snapped.”
Quick said the dog jumped up on the wall and bit down on her arm. A friend tried to pull the dog off, and was attacked briefly but Quick said in second the dog was biting down on her upper arm again.
“I have five deep cuts, two of them are all the way to the bone,” Quick said.
Quick was saved by her friend, who finally pulled out a knife and stabbed the dog. She said she’s sad the dog died, but grateful her firend was there to help.
