Summary
Kimberly Thompson, a Polk County woman, was severely injured by a pit bull she was fostering. The dog attacked her just a day after she took it in from Rescue Paws. Thompsons family dogs spooked the pit bull, causing it to bite her arms, resulting in torn muscles, tendons, and ligaments. She was airlifted to Lakeland Regional Medical Center for emergency surgery. Rescue Paws has removed the dog from the home and is cooperating with officials. Thompson is currently in intensive care, and her arm function after recovery is uncertain. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
