Jacqueline Durand, 22, from Dallas, Texas, was attacked by dogs that she had been asked to care for shortly before Christmas last year. She was thrown into a medical coma, resuscitated many times, and had significant reconstructive surgery.
Before this incident, the two dogs had been “lovely” to her, but as soon as she opened the door, they attacked her, pulling her into the living room and ripping off her nose, ears, lips, and cheeks. The tragedy occurred just one day before to her 22nd birthday.
Ms. Durand has now stepped out to share her experience and demonstrate how it has affected her body. She hopes to educate dog owners and sitters realize the risks involved. The photographs may be hard for some readers to look at.
