Dog bites off owner's toe
ALTON, Ill. - July 3, 2008
Linda Floyd told the Alton Telegraph Wednesday that
her beloved Roscoe was euthanized because of safety concerns.
The 56-year-old says she has no feeling in her toes because of
nerve damage from diabetes. She discovered the toe missing after
waking from a nap Monday. She called her daughter, who phoned 911.
A veterinarian says the toe had been bandaged because of a
healing hangnail. That might have somehow attracted the dog.
