I thought this was going to be a parody.

Lol just saw the thread where the dog eats that guys condom after having sex with it. That might be more sick than this dog eating a toe. Yikes!

 

[dfuze]

So according to the story the dog did him a favor... um, good boy?

 

[Azraele]

Well that was a strange story.

 

[OCGuy]

The toe had a condom on it.

 

[I Saw OJ]

Three margaritas and he didnt feel his toe being chewed off?

 

[alkemyst]

where did you read three?

 

[Soundmanred]

where did you read three?

Maybe 4 or 5 beers + 2 margaritas = 3 margaritas?
Must be bartender mathematics.

4 beers is 2 margaritas, they are not as innocent as you think, 1 beer is pretty much half a drink if it's a 5.2 in a 33cl, if it's bigger, it'll be more.

So this is about 4.5 margeritas.

But the margaritas in the story were "giant golden margaritas", so that should equal about 12.5 normal margaritas (including the beer to margarita conversion of course).

story is pretty disgusting trying to paint the dog as a hero for an old passed out drunk who was too lazy to go to the doctors.

There was nothing aggressive or dangerous about the dog's behavior. It was instinct to try and save a pack member from an obvious infection. I've had many dogs and they will all go right to where I have a bandage and try to take care of and clean the wound. I had one dog who remembered all my old injuries and would give them a lick or two, it was quite charming. I fell and scraped up a knee and he would lick the knee of my jeans for many years after I had healed.
The guy was a complete tool to let it go like that.

the diabetes damaged his nerves

Kiko apparently sensed an infection festering in his master's right big toe -- and chewed most of it off after Douthett passed out in a drunken stupor.

Um.. Yeah. That's a nice feel-good way to put it. More likely the guy's toe smelt like something edible to the dog (They like rotting things) so the dog went to town. Dog probably would have eaten his hand if it smelt like kibble.

Nice try, tell us more about all your knowledge and experience about dogs and pack animals, and pack behavior.

True. My health care plan is so shitty that one of the treatments allowed is having a dog lick it. Followed by pouring Robitussin on it.

Just dealt with animals in general. I've had a couple of dogs that I'm certain would have eaten me by now if it weren't for my sour personality.

Dogs don't generally start gnawing on people (unless they are playing with them). So you have two options. The feel good "He smelt cancer and was ready to perform surgery if necessary!". Or the practical answer "He smelt something tasty in the toe, so he tried to eat it." Heck, since the dog looks like a terrier of some sort, It wouldn't surprise me if he was just chewing on him for the heck of it.

Dogs are smart, but not THAT smart.

 

[skyking]

Hey don't get me wrong, the dog knows nothing and is not smart. It is just millions of years of successful pack animal behavior. The dog was being a dog.
The guy's toe was so infected and rotten it smelled too bad to go in public. I won't try to gross you out with the details, but suffice it to say that it probably did not take much, if any gnawing on the dog's part.

I guess we pretty much agree then. It was more behavior than "OMG, I must save my master"

From the link:

"One day I was lying down working on a car and Rosee saw my foot, and she looked as though she'd seen a ghost," he said. "We've got to go to the hospital," he remembers her insisting.

And they did not go then. No, it was many days later, "after I get drunk". She fails for not persuading him, he fails period.

She failed? You can lead a horse to water, you can't make the old drunk bastard drink. (Unless he wants to)

yeah, she failed. I suspect from your posts here that you could have persuaded him to go. I KNOW my wife could! I've seen her do it a couple of times with crusty old neighbors. One guy was having his first COPD episode and yet refused to go. She got his ass up, and he is still not wanting to go. "Come on outside and have a cigarette" Don't want to" "you can't can ya?" "oh alright I'l go #!$!%!$$^$#$@@"
