Parents will do anything to keep their children safe from harm’s way.
That’s why when two dogs started viscously attacking a California mom’s toddler, she bravely sacrificed herself to protect him.
While walking from the driveway to the front door of the family’s Anaheim home one morning, the mom noticed two unfamiliar dogs had approached her 2-year-old son. At first, the two dogs, who were wearing collars, appeared to be friendly, but the boy’s mom rushed over and picked him up when they pushed him over and started getting aggressive.
But once the concerned mom picked her toddler up, the dogs turned on her. The mom then ran over to the front door, however, gets cornered on the porch when she can’t find the keys to go inside. The terrified mom immediately gets between the snapping dogs and at one point even lied on top of her son to shield him from their brutal bites.
“She was screaming and yelling for help,” said the toddler’s dad, Spenser Bishop, who watched the brutal attack that was captured on the family’s security cameras.”It was just a constant battle for five to seven minutes of just terror.” Eventually, a neighbor heard the woman’s screams and was able to pry the dogs away from them until animal control officers arrived, yet the damage had already been done.
The 2-year-old was taken straight to the hospital and was given multiple stitches for the various bites and needed plastic surgery on his face. “He has a big laceration in his face and his leg,” Bishop said. “To see your child go through something like that, or your wife … My wife’s a hero.”
