On Monday night, a man was a victim of an attempted armed robbery on the 800 block of South 15th Street.

All of a sudden I hear somebody behind me that says gimme that and then he fires, Todd Lane said.

Lane said a man demanded money he had just won from a scratch off lottery ticket. Before he could respond, the man fired his gun. He fell to the ground as the bullet grazed him.

A hero came to the rescue, Lanes 12-year-old pitbull, Skyler.

The bullet grazed me and thats when my dog came into action, he said. He charged after the dude with the gun and that guy shot the dog four times, they found four different shots in him.

Lane says at least eight shots were fired. Some made hit his home, breaking a window a damaging his siding.

Two bullets went into his living room, where two guests were watching television at the time. Lane says his dog is his life. He says he considers him his son and his best friend.

He saved me. I mean, you always wonder, would your dog take a bullet for you? and I found the case out. He took four for me. Hes a great dog, Lane said.

Skyler was shot four times. Two bullets grazed him, one went straight through his upper lip, and one through his right paw.

He was in surgery on Wednesday to reconstruct his paw, an expensive procedure to keep him walking.

Amputation was not an option because of the arthritis in his left shoulder.

King says despite a really negative situation, seeing the community come together has been the silver lining.

This community has just taken Skyler and my uncle and wrapped them in their arms, she said. Theyre loving on them so hard. Its amazing.

Lane says he is grateful to those who have donated.

This community has saved Skyler. Basically, they have saved his life, he said. It aint me thats saved his life, its this community. All the funds they have given me, all the support they have given me, and everything theyre doing for my dog has literally saved his life.

Skyler is now out of surgery and is doing okay. Lane is not sure when he will be able to return home.

Hero dog takes 4 bullets for owner and still retains enough energy to attack a school of children.

I mean, I did have 3 roommates. But the other 2 were kids, so

.... i didnt even see your post lol

I grew up around pitfalls but my family always made sure to train the CRAP out of them, as most larger dogs should be.

I miss this guy, he was a puppy til the day he died



And before you ask, yes his ears are cut but they were like that when we got him. Our other pitbulls never had their ears cut.

:(. Mines like 6 years and he's definitely still a puppy. He's also so sensitive that whenever I yell at a game, he looks at me and shakes. Then I gotta go comfort him and tell him he didn't do anything wrong lol. You'd think I beat him or something >_>.

But he's literally been around kids of all ages his whole life and I can't even remember a time when he ever growled at anything. I feel like people who hate them aren't gonna have their minds changed online, so I'm just gonna start having fun with the meme.

Hopefully someday they meet a dog like your old friend or mine and they realize how ignorant they've been for generalizing.
