__________
John R. Warner Set Upon by Vicious Animal Near His Home Last Evening
__________
Rock Island - John R. Warner, 2832 Fifth avenue, was set upon by a bulldog last evening and seriously injured, there being three places on his face where the teeth of the canine sank into the flesh. Mr. Warner was walking on Fifth avenue between Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth streets when the dog suddenly appeared.
Without warning it sprang at Mr. Warner and tried to get at his throat. The victim turned his head in time to prevent this, however, and the dog's teeth struck the face. Mr. warner defended himself as best he could until rescued from the savage animal, and then he went at once to receive medical attention, fearing that the bites on his face might prove serious.
This morning he entered complaint against the owners of the dog, and the police will probably shoot the animal.

Apr 27, 1910 A Chicago Girl's Kick Kills a Bulldog
__________
With One Blow From Her Boot She Kills A Bulldog
__________
Chicago - With one kick of her right foot Mildred Wilson, of West Randolph street, this morning broke the neck of a large bulldog that attacked her on the way home from a nearby store. Miss Wilson, who is a slender girl, 10 years old, has been practicing stage dancing, and to this she gives the credit of having been able to ward off the attacks of the animal.
She was returning from the store with her harms full of bundles when the dog rushed at her. She jumped to one side. Before the dog could attack her again, Miss Wilson was prepared, and as the animal jumped, she swung her right foot, which was encased in a heavy walking shoe, against the dog's chin, much in the manner in which a football player kicks a goal.
The dog gave an agonized yelp and dropped in its tracks dead. No sooner had the girl realized what she had done than she began to cry out of sympathy for the animal that attacked her.

Apr 01, 1910 Bulldog Attacks a Jersey Cow at Peoria
----------
Latter, Chained to a Stake, So Badly Mangled It Will Probably Die
---------
Peoria - A vicious bulldog belonging to william Stege attacked a fine jersey cow, also the property of Stege, yesterday and before he could be torn from his victim had literally torn the unfortunate beast to pieces. When finally the dog was dragged away the cow presented a shocking appearance. The animal's hide was torn into strips, its entrails were protruding in places and all the flesh had been stripped from its legs. The lot in which the cow had been tethered looked like a slaughter house so bathed was it in crimson gore and the cow lay stretched on the ground, a heap of mangled flesh. The cow was tethered in a vacant lot near the Stege house and was peacefully cropping grass when a small mongrel pup chanced along and began barking at the animal. This excited the bulldog which, without warning, suddenly leaped at the cow and began its murderous attack. The dog was shot and the cow will probably die.
