Chris Wilson Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Sorry if replies to e-mails and PM's are slow in going out, the rescue dog bit me and I am typing with one hand, and I have got behind. I am also behind in some work, but it's a race gearbox, so you lot aren't affected The doc says I'll be buggered up for at least 10 more days...

michael Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Weird, Steve Irwin taken from us by something normally placid and Chris Wilson attacked by a dog rather than some exotic 15ft bird creature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 It was a he, and yes, about as big as they come. http://gatesgarth.com/aslan/aslan.html The big male, not our (still quite big) bitch. Aslan is Turkish for Lion, he was aptly named. He's back with a breeder whilst the original owners decide what to do with him. He was fine for a week, then just went for me as I went to take him for a walk, and got me pinned in his run with my back against an inside opening door... I admit he put the bejeebas up me!

Bob Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Shame, he's a beautiful looking dog. It's always a shame though - you never really know what's happened to a rescue dog in it's past. My Mum's got a 6month old rescue pup, who's so terrified of a hair brush that he wets himself if one goes anywhere near him - we can only guess he was beaten early on Still, a lovely little lump though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 the dog is built like a liger and chris nice wellies mate I'm guessing Chris is probably holding the camera and that is, in fact, Mrs Wilson? If not and Chris really does look that effeminate, I apologise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stupra Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hope your hand isn't to bad Chris, an thats a beautiful dog, pity things didn't go to plan. I think its the lack of the draw with rescue dogs, our's was a rescue dog, an was miss treated, (black Lab/Doberman cross), an its the most lovin an loyal dog i've ever known.

Shaun. Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Sorry to hear this Chris, sounds scary as he's a really big dog .. think your lucky to get out with both hands ! Shaun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Like I said on the phone Chris, I was really concerned when Pete told me about the incident. Glad you are (relatively) ok and I hope that there isn't any lasting damage. Stupid dog doesn't know what it's just lost out on, I know you are passionate about your animals (can you call some of them 'pets'??!)

Sheefa Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Jesus Chris when you said you had hurt your arm I thought you mean't by mechnical work, or a door knock or something, not a giant dog taking a bite. Really sorry to hear about it mate - hope you're on the mend quickly and that things go well with the dog......whatever is decided You still ok to work then?

Gazboy Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Bloody hell mate! He's a big boy! What breed is he- Tibetan Mastiff? Reminds me of a Leonberger that picked a fight with my staffy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Chris was pretty bad on Friday when it happened. Blood pouring out of his bandaged arm. He even couldn't finish his pint he was that bad! I got seriously worried at that point. I admit he put the bejeebas up me! So that's why you were walking funny too!? I'm guessing Chris is probably holding the camera and that is, in fact, Mrs Wilson? Yes that's Jane. Bloody good job he didn't go for her - shudder to think.

Chris Wilson Posted September 6, 2006 Author Share Posted September 6, 2006 The left arm is a lot better today and the clips are off. My right hand, which the *astard put his canines right through, is still a bit tender though... ftp://ftp.chriswilson.tv/bite He missed an artery in my forearm by a fraction, the last bad bite i got didn't, and was spectacular for a while!

Thorin Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Ouch, bet that smarted a bit. Well it must have been bad to put you off the beer chris! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Unfortunately, or rather gladly!, I can't see the video through work proxy Chris but I can only imagine! I'll take a look when back. Get well soon mate. Shall I send you some brackets and fasteners for you to play with to keep your arm and hand busy as i'm sure you're having car withdraw symptoms.
