Around 5:10 this afternoon (12/12/2025) my daughter and I were sitting on our front porch chatting when we were suddenly attacked by our neighbors pit bull. The dog went after my daughter first. After a struggle with the dog I was able to open the front door and push my daughter inside. The pit bull proceeded to force his way in and I had to fight and kick the dog to get it out of my home. I shut the door and called emergency services immediately.
My daughter was transported via ambulance to the ER. She sustained the majority of injuries. Luckily I was able to grab and fight off the dog and to prevent further injuries to my daughter. I sustained minor injuries to my left wrist and my left foot.
My daughter sustained multiple puncture wounds and cuts to her left leg, both sides of her hands and arms, and a puncture wound on her right shoulder
The dog has been detained by animal control via the Greenville police department. My neighbor couldn't provide proof of current or former rabies vaccination so we are in a 10 day waiting period.
I have contacted an attorney but I do need help with paying for legal counsel. I am also in need of help with 1 week of bills so that I may stay home and care for my daughter since it is painful for her to use her hands. Unfortunately, I am financially drained because we just relocated to Greenville from Charleston 2 weeks ago and I just started at a new job. All of my savings are gone. This couldn't have come at a worse time.
Any help at this time would be greatly appreciated ❤️
