In Chelyabinsk, a unique operation was carried out on a little resident of Satka, who was bitten by a dog. Six-year-old Artem wanted to pet his mother's friend's pet while walking, and the dog suddenly pounced on him, bit off part of his lip and ate it. The head of the department of reconstructive and plastic surgery of the Chelyabinsk Regional Clinical Hospital, Alexander Pukhov, noted that if the lip fragment was preserved, it would simply be sewn into place. “And so you have to operate in several stages, take the skin behind the ear and form a new lip,” the doctor said. As noted in the press service of the CHOKB, so that the boy would not be nervous before the next intervention, his mother brought him to the operating room in her arms. Surprisingly, the child does not hold a grudge against the dog at all. Moreover, he does not want the owners to euthanize the mongrel (the owners of the guilty dog are now deciding whether to live or not). Artem thinks that during the holidays the four-legged one is tired of the children on the playground, who constantly climbed to the dog. That is why, the boy is sure, the animal showed aggression towards him. A small resident of Satka asks his mother to have a puppy that could be stroked without fear of bites (before Artem dreamed of a kitten).
