Howard had no insurance for a dog attack. A bricklayer who was recently laid off, he agreed to a payment plan to pay the medical bills. Thomas Newell, the victim’s attorney, said he will investigate whether the landlord’s insurance company has any liability in the case.
Meanwhile, Oreo is recovering well. Tittel described the 6-year-old dog as a “tough little guy.”
Jesperger said Oreo will have another surgery soon to remove the wires keeping his jaw together.
“He’s eating OK,” she said. “Soft foods only.”
Jesperger and her father are doing well, and Oreo is getting better.
“He still has nightmares about that day,” Tittel said. “He wakes up crying at night.”
