<p>An Ocala, Fla. man is suspected of raping a female pit bull, and the sexual assault left her clinging for life in the emergency room, the owner says.</p> <p>Melissa Young, 25, found her pit bull named Diamond profusely bleeding “like you turned a faucet on, running out of her,” she told WCJB.</p> <p>She then rushed her dog to the animal hospital where vets told her that because the dog was spayed, the injury could only be the result of a sexual assault.</p> <p>“I asked the vet if there was any chance that it could be a human because we have suspicions of someone in this neighborhood that does do that to his animals, and she said actually that’s the only thing it could be — that a human could mess with her.”</p> <p>Diamond lost 80% of her blood and had to receive a transfusion to keep her alive. It cost Young $1700 in treatment costs.</p>
