Mother slammed for keeping dog even after it bit daughter, 3, who needed stitches on her face
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A woman who kept her dog even after it bit her young daughter, leaving her with scars and requiring stitches for her face, is facing disapproval on TikTok.
The mother, identified as Klara Tsetkin on the video-sharing site, justified her choice to keep the dog, Bart, after he bit her three-year-old daughter Milana.
Klara contended on TikTok that the cocker spaniel 'never attacked' her daughter and that it responded in self-defense. In one of the video she said, "He was very sick! "

She added, "And tries to hide under the bed.. his hind legs gave out and he couldn't crawl away..(Our) 3 year old daughter did not understand that the dog needs to rest today and not touch him... she began to touch him even more, sit on him and climb into his face and hurt him..."

In another video, Klara claimed that her refusal to put the animal down led to the breakdown of her marriage with her husband. The video is captioned, "When someone asks me - will you regret that you are divorcing your husband because he wants to get rid of the dog?"

The dog parent vigorously rejected the idea while posing for several photos with her cherished pet.
Many TikTok users were not thrilled, with some saying that Klara's decision to keep her pet implied that her dog was "more important than [your] kid". Her young daughter, who is now five and a half years old, was bitten by Bart just over three years ago, and her mother released a series of videos demonstrating how her skin has now recovered.

'Help our princess, we will be eternally grateful'
"For those who asked to see how the scar now looks after a dog bite," Klara remarked. She noted that because of how the treatment was done, Milana still had a visible scar on her face. She said, "The doctor did not tighten the stitches to the end due to a possible infection, so the scar turned out to be wide. We are planning to do a scar resurfacing. If there are those who want to help our princess, we will be eternally grateful." She even provided a link to a fundraiser page.
