Man, David Lindsay, wakes to find his puppy has chewed his big toe to the bone but it saved his life
A UK man woke to discover that his dog had chewed his big toe to the bones, only to find later that his dog’s action might have saved his life.
David Lindsay, 64, woke suddenly from sleep when he heard his wife emit a bloodcurdling scream.
He then found that his bulldog Harley had chewed his big toe to the bones.
He’s done me a favor by chewing my toe,” David told SWNS.
The Cambridge native’s said: “I was asleep on the couch when my wife walked in and shouted, ‘Dave, the puppy’s chewing your toe!’”
He said that he woke up to see a bloody stump where his big toe had been.
As it turned out, his 7-month-year-old puppy gnawed his toe so badly that he’d fractured it, and left a nail hanging off like a human chew toy.
