A Florida woman Lori Beiswenger loves her dog so much that when an alligator attacked it she wrestled with the reptile.
She fought off the alligator with her bare hands.
Beiswenger who is the manager of the Point O’ Woods
Golf & Country Club in Inverness, Florida recalled that she heard
dog called Hope screaming in pain.
"It was the worst scream I have ever heard from
her. I just ran over and I saw them rolling around on the bank. All I
could see was teeth. Gator teeth and her teeth" she told Bay News 9.
The 'gator had its jaws on he dog's body and was
dragging her to the pond before Beiswenger jumped in the pond and
grabbed the alligator's tail.
"I just kept pulling in, saying, ‘You’re not getting her, you’re not going out there,’ because I knew what he had in mind" said Lori Beiswenger.
She pulled the alligator thrice dragging it away from her dog.
A friend of Beiswenger tried to rescue the dog with a shovel but the reptile was adamant in getting Hope.
It went after the dog but Beiswenger and her friends
subdued it trying to tie its mouth and hands. In the struggle, the dog
suffered a severed artery and other minor wounds.
Hope underwent emergency recover and is slowly recovering.
