Jerry Schlich was walking his dogs near his Belleville, Illinois home when a big white and tan dog (an Akita mix possibly) came out of nowhere and began attacking his dogs.
Jerry said his dog, Hank, was literally screaming out in pain and fear. Jerry did what any loving dog owner would do, he jumped in the fray kicking and punching in an attempt to save his dogs.
This is when the aggressive dog and his dog cohort turned on Jerry. They were able to pin Jerry to the ground and deliver multiple bites. Jerry suffered serious tears and puncture wounds in the attack. Doctors contend that a child would not have survived.
Now St. Clair County Animal Control officers are looking for the dogs and owner. Jerry and others in the neighborhood say that both dogs had collars with tags on them. Others in the neighborhood reported seeing the dogs bloody before from having attacked something or someone.
If you live in the area and see these dogs or know the owners please call St. Clair County Animal Control
