Mountain Lion Viciously Attacks Family’s Pet Doberman In A Fight For The Ages

This video is from last year but it has made the viral rounds again on the world wide webs and it’s the first time I’ve seen it and I work on the internet. I think that means I suck at my job, but whatever, BACK OFF!

The footage shows a mountain lion (which we’ll call Nate Diaz) and a Doberman dog (Conor McGregor) fighting as close to death as possible in Tujunga, California. McGregor, who is chained to the house and is a considerable amount smaller than Diaz, manages to get the cougar on its back, but the coog uses its death-grip jaws to clamp the pups neck.

After about a minute of giving McGregor a death hickey, it appears that the Diaz had killed its opponent, as the dog lay motionless on the blood-splattered patio. At this point, the mountain lion mutters ‘there’s a new king in this ma’fucka’ and books it into the woods.

All dogs go to heaven, I guess.

NOT SO FAST.

The stubborn Doberman then rises to his feet in a true act of resilience. Despite having to get 60 stitches in its neck, McGregor should heal up just find in 4-6 weeks. Moral of the story: only fight opponents in your weight class.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
