There has never been a better example of a dog who is this man’s best friend.
Ryan from Melbourne, Australia, was taking his basset hound Baxter for an evening stroll when things quickly turned dangerous. Two unleashed dogs made their way over to Baxter and went straight for his neck.
Ryan tried to pull his beloved Baxter away from the dogs, but they wouldn’t let up. A neighbor’s security camera captured this chilling attack, and it stunned everyone!
Ryan told 7 News, “My initial reaction was to try to lift him out of the height of the biting dogs, and then one of the dogs pushed me to the ground.”
He then bravely threw himself head-first between the two dogs and Baxter, trying to protect his best friend at any cost.
When neighbors heard the cries from Baxter and screams of help from Ryan, they made their way over to the scene, and one man helped break up the fight by hitting the dogs with a plastic chair. Finally, the vicious dogs took off, but it wasn’t over for Baxter.
Ryan recalled, “One of the things that I still remember is him stopping breathing and then crying in pain.”
Despite the trauma, Baxter is recovering from puncture wounds and is slowly regaining his confidence. Ryan luckily managed to escape with just grazes.
