Candlelight Vigil Event for Victims of Dangerous Dogs Draws Attendees from Across the Country
The vigil event commences on the California State Capitol building steps at 6:30 pm, Saturday, October 26.
Sacramento, CA, October 22, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The family of a 3-year old girl mauled by a pit bull last year is hosting a vigil event to remember and honor the victims of dangerous dogs and to raise awareness about the growing frequency of serious and fatal dog attacks. On Saturday, October 26, Kaylie's Candlelight Vigil for Victims of Dangerous Dogs takes place in Sacramento on the West Steps of the State Capitol building. Kaylie's vigil begins at 6:30 pm. Attendance is free.
On July 7, 2012, Kaylie Foster required over 100 stitches across her face after being attacked by a pit bull at her father's home in Stockton. Now 5-years old, doctors say that Kaylie will have to wait until she is a teenager to undergo plastic surgery. Like many other families, Kaylie's family, who is sponsoring the vigil event, was unaware of how widespread these attacks are until it happened to a loved one. Kaylie's family hopes that the vigil will help prevent a future mauling.
Since the attack, Kaylie's family has connected with many victims of serious dog maulings and DogsBite.org, a Texas-based nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing serious dog attacks. Victims as far away as Maryland are attending the Sacramento vigil event. California victims, including the family of Hunter Kilbourn (Antioch) who was mauled by two pit bulls in August and the family of Claudia Gallardo (Stockton) who was killed by a pit bull in April, are attending as well.
