As the story goes, a young woman returned home from work one afternoon to find her Doberman Pincer gagging and choking on something..what, she did not know. Unable to help the dog dislodge the foreign matter herself, she rushed him to the nearest animal hospital, where she was advised to leave the dog for observation. Upon returning home a second time, she immediately received a telephone call from the animal hospital. "Yes, is my Doberman alright?" she asked. "Did you find out what he was choking on?"
In response, the veterinary doctor told her, "Listen...don't ask any questions, just get out of your house, NOW!! The police are on their way!"
Alarmed, she asked, "W-Why? Is my dog alright? What's going on??"
"Lady, I don't have time to explain," the doctor replied. "For your own safety, just do as I say! Get out of your house NOW, and wait for the police to arrive!!"
Now frantic, the woman did as the doctor told her, and ran out of her house to wait for the police. When the police did arrive moments later, they searched the woman's house thoroughly...and in an upstairs closet, they found a male intruder who'd been hiding there for some time. Understandably, the intruder had gone into shock, as his right hand was still profusely bleeding. He was soon taken away in an ambulance.
As it turned out, the woman's protective Doberman Pincer had been choking on three of the man's fingers...which the doctor had removed from deep within the dog's throat!
