Reality TV star Sean Lowe revealed that he was attacked by his own boxer, Moose, twice in 12 hours. The incident occurred on March 13 and 14 when Lowe’s wife, Catherine, took their three young children to the mall while he had friends over for a barbecue.
According to Lowe, the first attack happened after the smoke alarm went off due to the grill outside. He said that Moose became aggressive when he saw him and attacked him with his teeth. It took several minutes to get the dog outside, but Lowe was able to fend him off until help arrived.
The next day, Lowe admitted that he was still shaken by the incident and was attacked again while out in the yard. This time, the door wasn’t locked properly, allowing Moose to escape and attack Lowe once more.
Lowe credited his friends for helping him get medical attention quickly and praised his wife for being an “amazing” caretaker during his recovery. Despite feeling traumatized by the experience, he said that he’s grateful it was just him and not his children or wife who were attacked.
The family has since decided to rehome Moose with animal control and a no-kill shelter due to the incident’s unusual nature, given that the dog had previously been affectionate around their kids. Lowe will continue to work with these organizations to find the best solution for the dog’s future.
