Owner Rescues Dog from Gator

This story is crazy!!! Last week David Grounds witnessed an alligator snatch up his dog Mandy, a 45 pound Wheaten Terrier. So what does the guy do??? He goes after the alligator! He popped the gator in the eye, which I guess stunned him and caused him to release Mandy. David didn't get away unscathed though. The gator got two of his fingers! For the full story, click here.

Here's David and his son Joe and Mandy. Isn't she so cute? She's wearing a t-shirt to hide the wounds from the gator's teeth.

And here's the alligator! That is a big alligator!!!

This story really got me thinking about what I'd do in a similar situation. Okay, if I saw an alligator trying to eat Ari, I'd probably freak out mostly that there's an alligator roaming around Prairie Village, KS. Two fingers isn't much compared to the safety of your pet! What would you give up if you it meant the safety of your dog?
