Meet Rusty, a rescue dog that is accused of attacking a toddler after the child took it upon himself to go and pet the dog, the event took place on December 16 at Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, TX. The dog was not expecting it and his reaction, as many dogs is, was to bite. This dog is considered to be very passive, so this was clearly not his demeanor. The parents should not let their toddler wander around unattended. However, because of this, Rusty is now at risk of being euthanized.

Rusty's case appeared in court on 01/05/18 and he is currently slated for euthanasia on 01/16, however the rescue group may appeal this decision.

Rusty needs our voice, please share this far and wide.
