Are you fond of our canine friends? Of course, many of us have dogs as our amazing and loyal pets. Yeah, but are they still cute when they affectionately lick you? Many people let them do it. But a man has been forced to amputate his legs and hands after being licked by a dog.
The man has suffered from sepsis which is believed to be caused by the dog’s licking. After Greg Manteufel’s body started developnig flu, delirium like symptoms including rashes across his face and body, his wife had taken him to the hospital. In order to cover the hospital expenses a Gofundme account has been created to raise $30,000.
The sad part is that Mantuefel is very much fond of dogs and affectionate towards them. The man is expected to receive further treatment in the hospital and parts of his nose will also be removed during the process. As of now, it is unclear if the couple’s dog caused him sepsis as he was around atleast 8 dogs when he was struck by the illness.
