| Our dog killed my husband but I'm still keeping her
Quote:
A father died after being nipped by his dog during a game of fetch.
Steven Sewell, 55, was on holiday in the Scottish Highlands with his wife Angela and teenage son David when the family’s partially blind dog Judy bit him.
The retired teacher patched up the small wound with tissue and carried on as normal because he was not in any pain.
However, an inquest has heard how he began complaining of shivers and sickness a few days later.
He was taken to hospital, where doctors diagnosed blood poisoning, and he died a few days later after the infection spread to his brain.
The family say the dog has never behaved aggressively, and are keeping her in spite of the freak accident.
Mrs Sewell, 53, said of the incident: ‘It was not vicious. It was just bad eyesight and tragic, but you have to accept it and move on.’
The inquest heard Mr Sewell, of Hipperholme, West Yorkshire, had been fishing with his son and throwing sticks for the dogs.
He was playing with nine-year-old labrador, Harry, and Alsatian-Doberman cross Judy, ten, in Grantown-on-Spey, near Inverness, when Judy accidentally bit his finger as she jumped to take a stick.
