Ann Bendouli and her dog Lexy were walking on Hampton Beach in Melbourne, Australia in an off-leash area when another dog came from nowhere and started attacking Lexy. In an odd but ingenious move, Ann stuck her pointer finger up one of the dog’s hindquarters and the attack stopped.
It was definitely an unusual move, but it did manage to save Lexy. Lexy is okay, but suffered several serious wounds in the conflict. Thanks to Ann’s quick thinking, the worst didn’t happen that day.
There is currently an investigation into the attack. Officials hope to learn the cause for the incident, and say that the owner of the Staffys that attacked Lexy may be held responsible.
The story and video have gone viral all over the internet. The story has become internationally famous, and many are lauding Ann for her snap decision to literally point a finger at (or in this case, up) Lexy’s attacker.
At first, Ann attempted to pull the dogs off of Lexy by more conventional means, but to no avail. She knew she had to do something, but what?
“It was screaming (Lexy) and I thought ‘I’ve lost my dog,’” said Ann in an interview with news outlets.
The total scrap only took about four to five minutes before Ann did what she did. She lifted the attacking dog’s tail, and inserted a finger into the dog’s bum. That would usually stop just about anyone dead in their tracks. Thankfully, that’s exactly what happened.
“She had her upside down and she was shaking. So, I lifted it’s tail and I put my finger up it’s anal passage so deep I could feel the flesh,” said Ann. “She is my soul mate and I love her so much. I was so glad that she was actually saved because I would be lost.”
“stuck her pointer finger up one of the dog’s hindquarters”?
No, she stuck her finger in the dog’s anus, which isn’t a hindquarter, and a dog only has one, so it couldn’t be “one of” anyway.
Poor writing, but good for Ann and her dog.
I would have buried my shoe in that dog’s ass.
Perhaps there is a wider application for this clever defense.
ISIS, perhaps.
I would love for her to stick her pointer finger up my ass too.
I think they meant one of the dogs. Not one of it’s “hindquarters”. Poorly worded.
nutter
WTH?
Kinky.
U can pinch their nose close and they will let go…no need to stick anything in any hole
Pinch their nose and say good by to your wrist. It will not work on a snub nose like a bulldog or pitbull.
…and then be VERY quick escaping.
You’ll end up getting bit doing that. NOT SAFE at all.
