An 86-year-old man is recovering at the hospital after police say his neighbor attacked him outside of his Manchester home, threatening to kill him. Family members say his life was saved by the actions of his dog.
“He was throwing patio furniture, hitting with chairs, bricks, and rocks,” Brittney Ardizzoni, the victim’s great-nice said.
Police said Donald Pierce, 55, surprised and then assaulted Ned Tarmey early Sunday morning when Tarmey let his dog out the back door of his house on Pine Avenue.
“There was man standing there and basically just said he was there to kill him,” Ardizzoni said.
Tarmey’s family said as Pierce attacked Tarmey the family dog, Kane, pounced on him, holding Pierce down until police got to the scene.
“He had no clothes on, so I’m guessing that whatever Kane did was, you know, probably not comfortable,” Ardizzoni said.
I will have you know that both of my dogs are very naughty and I tell them that regularly. Usually right before giving them treats or rubbing their bellies.
I also let them know that they don't deserve it because of how naughty they are.
What breed was the dog? From the thumbnail it looks like a pit bull mix. I can't help but notice that when there's a negative story about a dog, and it's a pitbull/mix, the media is quick to mention the breed, but when it's a positive story, the breed is omitted.
It’s a bully of some stripe.
I don’t know if the NBC article has media in it for me that won’t load or what, but there’s a content box that just… won’t show anything. Likely it’s my ad-blockers. I don’t know if that portrays the same video I link below.
