An eight-year-old chihuahua fended off an attack from a mountain lion while walking with his owner on a Colorado trail.
Laurie Cullum was walking with Spits on a Durango trail that they frequented on August 28 when she heard her pooch crying.
When she turned around, Cullum discovered that her dog was covered in blood and noticed a mountain lion running away.

'I had to make a decision right there,' Cullum explained to 9News. 'Is he going to be able to live like this? Or can I try and save his life?'
Cullum worked to quickly stop the bleeding and rushed the dog to Durango Animal Hospital where he was treated by Dr. Charles Hawman.
'The vet thought he had a chance and brought him home to his own house for 2 nights in a row to care for him throughout the night,' Cullum added.
Spits suffered puncture wounds to the neck and head. He was bitten through his sinus and inner ear canals, resulting in some balance troubles.

The dog is also now blind in one eye after surviving the attack.
'He's not the same dog for sure, but he's alive and walking in straight lines now,' Cullum explained. 'Initially the first week he could only walk in circles.'
It is unknown how long it will take for Spits to recover. His owner is just in disbelief that such a thing could happen to them.
'It's so hard to believe it's really happening,' she stated. 'I thought, "Oh that doesn't happen to people like me who are so familiar with the outdoors."'
Colorado Parks and Wildlife has put up warning signs throughout Durango.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
