Girl attacked by wild dogs

A 12 year old, North Carolina child, was attacked by 5 feral dogs while she played basketball in her driveway. Her brother, the hero, was successful in fighting the dogs off but not before they took a few hefty chunks out of his little sister…she is now recovering.

Sanford — A 12-year-old Harnett County girl was recovering at home Wednesday after being attacked by a pack of dogs outside her home.

Melissa Rollins was playing basketball with her 13-year-old brother, Kevin, last Thursday outside their home on Rosser Pittman Road when five dogs – three adults and two pups – emerged from a nearby field. One of the larger dogs lunged at Melissa and began dragging her to a nearby woods line.

    Why are there wild feral dogs in this town anyway? You can’t put the blame on the dogs, after all if it wasn’t for some humanbeings not spaying or neutering their dogs things like this wouldn’t happen.If people would be responsible for their pets,and make sure they don’t have litters or if they do,make sure they have homes and not just diespose of them like they are throw away trash then things like this would not happen.But there are those who do not take care of their responsibilities and others have to pay..I hope this young lady is fine and BRAVO TO HER BROTHER..I only hope that all learn from this accident and lets keep it from being a tragedy. Please spay and neuter your pets, and if you cannot afford to, DO NOT GET A PET, THEY ARE NOT THROW AWAYS THEY LIVE,BLEED,FEEL, AND BREATHE TOO!!AND THEY ALSO WANT TO BE LOVED AND HAVE A FOREVER HOME!!THESE Dogs probably would of been GREAT Pets too if they weren’t wild and that all is because of a HUMAN!!!!!
