Sean Lowe Shares Shocking Details of Brutal Dog Attack: “Fighting for My Life”

Imagine adopting a dog as a Christmas gift for your kids, only to have it turn into a scene straight out of a horror movie. That’s exactly what happened to *Bachelor* alum Sean Lowe, who recently revealed the harrowing details of being attacked—twice—by his family’s beloved boxer, Moose. In a candid Instagram video, Lowe recounted the traumatic events, which left him with deep bite wounds, a pool of blood, and a newfound fear of his own pet.
The first attack occurred on March 13, when Lowe was home barbecuing with friends. Smoke from the grill set off the smoke detectors, and as Lowe attempted to fan the smoke away, Moose lunged at him, biting his finger. But this was no playful nip. The dog escalated, ripping into Lowe’s arm with such ferocity that he described it as “fighting for my life.” Despite managing to temporarily lock Moose away, the dog broke free and attacked again the next day, forcing Lowe to seek medical attention for additional stitches.
What makes this story even more unsettling is the contrast between Moose’s usual demeanor and his sudden aggression. Just hours before the first attack, the dog had been peacefully resting his head in Lowe’s lap. Lowe speculated that Moose may have had unresolved trauma or a neurological issue, but the reality is that the family had to make the heartbreaking decision to remove him from their home for the safety of their three young children.
Catherine Giudici, Lowe’s wife, shared a photo of him with their 5-year-old daughter Mia, showcasing his fresh scars and stitches. The image, accompanied by a simple orange heart emoji, spoke volumes about the family’s resilience and love in the face of such a traumatic event.
This incident serves as a stark reminder that even the most beloved pets can have unpredictable moments, and it raises important questions about the responsibilities of pet ownership, especially in households with young children.
And yet, amidst the chaos, Lowe managed to maintain his trademark optimism, thanking fans for their support and assuring them that the family would be okay.
