A dog has died following an encounter between a protective mother moose and a couple of dogs during a walk Monday afternoon.

Dog owner, Natalia Albinati says she was taking a study break around 4 p.m. to take her dog, Loki and her brother’s dog, Rowdy along the ravine in Calgary’s Strathcona neighbourhood.

“All of a sudden, I looked up and like right to the left of me — like 10 feet away — was a moose and her calf,” said Albinati.

According to Albinati, both dogs were off leash and ahead of her along the path and so there was nothing between her and the moose.

Albinati said, as she tried to get her dogs away, one of them was startled by the situation and started barking. That’s when she said the moose bluff charged the dog, but then turned its attention towards her.

She said she turned and ran. That’s when Rowdy, a 14-year-old Stafford Bull Terrier got in the middle of her and the moose.

Craig Momney has more.
