A 3-year-old pet dog survived a vicious attacked by a mountain lion in the backyard of a home in La Verne over the weekend. Full story: abc7.com/mount...
Oh, heartbreaking 💔 to see the beautiful innocent dog attacked. Such a horrible experience. I'm so elated to know the dog survived and is recovering. ❤Sending love ❤️ light and healing.❤
I love holier than thou people. So amazingly perfect . They live in a world with 100% security because they do everything they have declared right all the time. It must be quite the experience being you.
She was in the living room yet she didn’t come out to help when she heard her dog obviously screaming while being attacked ??? like I don’t even leave my dogs outside by them self I have to stay watching them cuz im so scared of this happening
Everything that she did sounds very suspicious and ultimately her dog paid the price please let us not allow us to blame A malnourished and starving animal such as the big cat
It did appear to be rough housing - those puncture wounds were real, though. It's astonishing there was no obvious aggression and the cougar didn't just do what big cats are supposed to do and dispatch the dog swiftly.
Anyone who has predators in their area and leaves the dog on supervised is not a good dog, furthermore living in such an area without owning a firearm is completely asinine!
I feel for the pet dogs and cats that are attacked in their own yard and I do not blame the owners. I'm happy Holly survived and hope she has a speedy recovery. People do need to be aware though - for themselves, their children, and pets - that just because you probably never see any wild predators on your street or in the surrounding neighborhood, does not mean they aren't there. Predators by nature are masters of staying out of sight, especially during the day. They generally are out from dusk til dawn. So depending on the time of year they can be out hunting as early as 5 pm. They do not distinguish between some wild critter or your beloved fur baby. To them if they can catch it and kill it, it's a meal for them and any young they may be raising.
So, I'm not bashing the owners, but they should know better. Coyotes, snakes, and other wild animals will attack your pets. Did you know coyotes and especially lions can jump your 8 ft fence?
Dogs have none survival instinct. They aren't afraid even wild animals. They try to play with them. That dog didn't even try to escape. It jumped a little further but turned back.
Well that’s why human should not go built the houses up in mountains.. They are endangering pets along with them. Left mountains for mountain lions n other native wildlife species…
@@janetyingythere’s many places to live for ppl….even out of state. Wildlife have no place to go…Their housing shortage started many many years ago. Many have gotten ran over and displaced for your comfort due to everyone’s selfishness.
@@blkcatdeeva if people move out of state like you claim, they will displace the wildlife OVER THERE. Your logic makes no sense. Either way, with the increase in human population, there will be wildlife that’s always affected….
FOR PEOPLE LIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS DOG OWNER OR NOT BEWARE OF MOUNTAIN LIONS & WILD LIFE & THE SIZE OF YOUR DOG BY IT SELF WILL NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A 1ON1 BATTLE AGAINST A FULL GROWN MOUNTAIN LION & THATS A FACT JACK
& JUST LIKE I SAID EVEN IF IT A LARGE OR A VERY LARGE DOG & ITS BY ITS SELF THAT DOG IN A 1ON1 BATTLE IS NO MATCH FOR A BIG MOUNTAIN LION UNLESS YOU HAVE HUMAN INTERVENTION & THATS A FACT JACK
40 years ago, mountain lions and bears never came in to wear people lift. That's because of dogs. But since the democrats said no more hunting, he's animals with dogs. Bears and lions do not fear them and well hunt and eat them duh
WHERE THEIR ARE WILD ANIMALS SUCH AS MOUNTAIN LIONS ECT YOU CANT JUST HAVE ONE DOG BY IT SELF OUT THEIR EVEN IF ITS A PITBULL OR ANY OTHER KIND OF DOG THEIR HAVE TO BE MAN INTERFERENCE SUCH AS PUTTING A SPIKE COLLAR ON THE DOG NECK & ITS BEST TO HAVE 2 DOGS OR MORE EVEN IF YOU HAVE A REALLY BIG AS ST BENARD TYPE BIG DOG IT STILL WILL NOT BE A MATCH IN A 1ON1 FIGHT W/ANY BIG WILD LIFE CAT & THATS A FACT
You've never had that problem yet. With nowhere to go, those suckers can and will show up in your neighborhood later if not sooner. Coyotes have already shown up in unlikely neighborhoods.
@@MrJuvefrank I guess u didn't see the fancy back yard with the swimming pool while the husband was grabbing the pool stick to fight the mountain lion off of in the news skit... stop it! A band of neighbors will pit down coyotes mountain lions quicker then they get down to the burbs especially if your neighbors got guns..😅
Massive fences. CCTV in gardens. Check the feed for movements before letting the dog out. That's how you find out if anything or anyone is already in the garden waiting. Want to live in a world that still has wildlife - you need to be proactive about protecting your pets from it and protecting it from your pets. We do like being reactive when we haven't been sufficiently proactive, though. Thankfully, and remarkably (I thought big cats tended to go for crushing the windpipe), the dog is relatively unhurt and nobody has sought revenge against Mountain Lions. Let's learn and do better.
And a weak pun that's apparently never going to stop being wheeled out at every opportunity - if you've been, miraculously, so far oblivious to just how uninspired our species has become.
THIS VIDEO above is another REAL reason why owning a firearm IS THE RIGHT of every citizen.. I'm talking about a single shot rifle or shotgun to protect you, your pets, property and family. Just like California state in the video, there are other anti-2A states that want to TOTALLY strip people rights away of owning any firearm.. And once again, this video is a prime example why that is such a POOR excuse.
I am a vet and proud 2A supporter but this post is misplaced. The lion is not some intruder violating your civil rights, it's a wild animal who hunted another animal left outside by its owner. If the lion breaks into your home, that's a different conversation. But expecting the lion to order UberEats when the home owner left a pet out in the open is wild.
HOW did you folks MISS those 3 warnings to you on that property! There IS an established mountain lion den there. Did they permit you? Look RIGHT next to your driveway for the big circle. THEN look all the way UP the hill at the shaped tree. Looks like a wildlife camera set up. THEN look UP to the TOP of the driveway and see if you do not see something squatting that looks like a human grown over with leaves or a ghillie suit. Do NOT let your dog out WITHOUT being outside with a BIG club. You're on wild land.
Idk what people expect when you live near wild animals or continue to develop further into nearby lands. Animals gotta eat 🤷🏻♀️ just be mindful and careful and you’ll be fine.
If I was dog sitting for her and this happened I would have just stood behind the window and done nothing. Why should I risk my life or waste my time calling for help over a dog.
We have 2 Giants the same age and weight and we have mtn lions here in northern Utah. I shared with my family bc literally this pup was 93lbs of defenselessness😢 we've seen tracks in the snow in our driveway.
