Frostbite man snaps off own finger! No1 FOR LAUGHS DOGGY CHEW TO THE RESCUE

-

A Heavily-pregnant woman has told how her dog tried to free her after she was tied to her chair by burglars.

Two machete-wielding raiders left Victoria Ratheram in the nursery of her cottage in Wollerton, Shropshire, and the dog tried to chew through her ties before a neighbour released her.

Victoria, 28 – who is eight months pregnant – said: “They threatened me, my three-year-old son and my dogs. They asked for a safe and I was tied up in the hall as they ransacked the house.

“I was moved into the nursery when they didn’t find a safe and tied to a chair with my dog in the room and my son.

“I was there for quite a while and my dog tried to chew through my ties and luckily I was freed by a neighbour.”
