HIGHLANDS - Elizabeth Dellapietro s dog was enjoying the backyard last week when an aggressive, rabid raccoon attacked.
The 63-year-old Highlands resident said the raccoon would not let go of her dog, Tilly, a 10-pound chihuahua mix. When I heard my dog scream in pain, I ran outside and I picked up a metal watering can and beat it (the raccoon) on its back to let go of my dog, she said.
The attack resulted in hundreds of dollars in veterinary bills and multiple trips to the hospital for rabies vaccines, Dellapietrio said.
Now she wants to warn the surrounding community of the danger.
