\nThe dogs\u2019 owner said this isn\u2019t the first time.
The victim is stable and being treated at St. Bernard Hospital. As he recovers, the dogs\u2019 owner is battling a fight: seven citations from police.
When asked if he was going to fight to get his dogs back, Renard Thurmond said \u201cI don\u2019t want them back.\u201d
\u201cIn my mind they were good dogs,\u201d said Thurmond, who admitted the unpredictable Sunshine and Bingo have escaped from his Englewood backyard before. \u201cThey were protective of me.\u201d
\u201cThey\u2019ve gotten under that fence plenty of times,\u201d said Thurmond. When asked why he didn\u2019t get the fence fixed, Thurmond said \u201cI tried fixing the fence. Cars keep hitting it.\u201d
Now, Thurmond won\u2019t need to make any repairs. The dogs were whisked away by animal control because they pounced on a pedestrian off the alley on 59th and Marshfield Wednesday morning.
\u201cI noticed his both hands were completely ripped apart,\u201d said Joseph Drish, who heard the screams while working on a Cook County board-up job nearby.
\u201cI jumped in my truck and tried pushing the dogs against the fence and realized that the dogs weren\u2019t gonna let loose off the bodies,\u201d said Drish. \u201cSo I grabbed the nail gun and then proceeded to shoot the dogs with my nail gun.\u201d
Even that didn\u2019t work. As officers tried to corral the dogs, first responders rushed the victim to the hospital.
\u201cI apologized to him earlier,\u201d said Thurmond. He said he\u2019s OK with the grim fate the dogs likely face.
\u201cI was keeping them for a buddy and now the dogs got me in trouble,\u201d lamented Thurmond. \u201cI don\u2019t want them back.\u201d
Animal control would not say what would happen to the dogs but only confirmed the dogs\u2019 owner willingly surrendered the animals.<\/p>\n
