Wichita Police say they get calls daily, if not weekly, about a pit bull attack. Already in March alone, officers have been forced to use their weapon against an attacking pit bull twice. The latest incident just happened last week in South Wichita and the attack nearly cost a family their Chocolate Lab.

"Choco is my best friend. He's my guard dog," says Michelle Lane. "He's my walking buddy. He's my protector."

Choco has been Lane's buddy since she got him 15 years ago. He has always been a big part of her world, but Wednesday, she thought her world was crashing down. Choco had been attacked by the neighbors 3 pit bulls, leaving her loving lab bloody and clinging to life.

On the way to the vet, Lane says she was fearing the worst. "I thought he was so bad I would have to put him down, but the vet said this old biker has some years left."

After stitching up Choco's wounds and inserting tubes to help drain excess fluids, the vet sent Choco home to heal.

Lane says she has no hard feelings with her neighbors who willingly turned their dogs over to animal control. The neighbors say they never thought their dogs would do such a thing, and they feel horrible.

Lane says Choco is doing well. He has a follow up appointment Monday to check is progress and remove his tubes.

With this latest pit bull incident, many wonder if the city's stated dangerous dog law will stand. The City Council decided not to single out the pit bull breed last year when it changed the law. The law states all dogs will face the same consequences if they exhibit dangerous or aggressive behavior. City Council has plans to re-visit the ordinance later this year. If pit bulls are still a problem, they will then consider a breed specific law.
