Dog saves dog in Australian shark attack

PERTH, Australia (AFP) - A dog saved its kennel mate from a shark attack at a beach in Broome, the pearling port in Western Australia's far north, police said.

A shark more than two metres (6.5 ft) long attacked the first dog at Gantheaume Point, a spokesman said on Thursday.


He said a man walking along the beach with his fiance saw a shark drag one of their dogs -- swimming at the time -- under the murky water.


Their other dog, on the shore when the shark struck, raced into the water and attacked.


Both dogs emerged unscathed from the surf, police said.


Experts say many sharks roam the Indian Ocean near Broome, but attacks on people or domestic animals swimming at beaches are rare.

Yeah I think that is the rare species of "nerdshark" -- btw, wtf?? I don't understand how the shark was killed. I know a damn dog didn't kill that shark.. so what, someone was standing on shore with a harpoon gun or something?

Here's my Aussie/Border Collie friend, Catcher, who was with me for 13 years. From when he was only 2 days old.

And then Shimano, my current Aussie...Aussie/Siberian Husky mix. She's my joy now.
