Choking Doberman

Here is an Urban Legend that has been around for many years.  The breed of dog changes, the ethnicity of those involve changes, but the theme is always the same.

A young woman arrives home from work to find her Doberman (Pit Bull, German Shepherd, etc.)  laying on the floor apparently choking.

She cannot see anything in the dog’s mouth and picks up the dog and rushes it to the veterinarian for emergency surgery.

She arrives home to a ringing phone and police sirens in the distance.

She runs in to pick up the phone and the veterinarian is on the other end telling her to get out of the house immediately, the police are on the way and will explain.

Just then a cruiser pulls up out front and the officers enter with guns drawn and one escorts her out of the house.  The officer explains that when the vet opened up the dog’s throat he found two fingers from a (insert ethnicity here).

The police follow a blood trail in the home and find the intruder in shock in the closet clutching his hand missing the two fingers.
