Family of woman mauled by pet Rottweilers shares bombshell message after dog attack in Success

The family of a young woman brutally mauled by her pet Rottweilers have claimed there is more to the story.

Nikita Piil, 31, suffered serious injuries to her arms and legs after she was viciously attacked by seven-year-old dog Bronx and four-year-old Harlem at her Success home in Perth last Saturday afternoon.

Her sister Natasha launched one GoFundMe asking for any donations from the community for future surgeries and rehabilitation costs.

“She loved and adored her dogs, and her friends and family saw how much they loved her too,” Natasha wrote.

“Unfortunately, she was caught in the crossfire while calming her dogs due to an incident nearby. There is more to this story than what the media has told.’

The fundraiser has raised more than $3,600 of its $15,000 goal, with a pledge to donate 100 percent of contributions to Nikita’s hospital needs.

“She has a long road to recovery and every dollar counts, no matter how big or small,” Natasha wrote.

“We know times are tough and we appreciate any donation to help her through this difficult time.”

Nikita was viciously attacked by her two Rottweilers, seven-year-old Bronx and four-year-old Harlem, at her Success home in the city’s south.

Police arrived at least 10 minutes after neighbors first heard Ms. Piil’s screams, and officers shot the Bronx. The dog was later euthanized by a veterinarian.

Harlem was taken to a local pound, where he remains while the investigation into the attack continues.

Ms Piil remains in a serious but stable condition after massive blood loss as doctors desperately try to save her arm.

Ms Piil’s Facebook posts dedicated to her beloved Rottweilers have resurfaced and have since been the target of vicious online trolls.

Her Facebook is littered with photos of her Rottweilers, including one of the dogs sitting next to dug-out artificial grass.

“My babies” Ms. Piil captioned the photo next to a black heart in 2020

In June, she captioned a photo of her dogs relaxing on the couch.

“My little kangaroo,” she wrote.

Days later, Mr Piil shared a Facebook video from a breeder of Rottweiler puppies ready to be rehomed.

‘Want them all. Always breeding the most beautiful babies,” she captioned the video.

Ms Piil got Bronx as a puppy in September 2016 and couldn’t wait to get him home and show him off on Facebook.

‘Baby Bronx is finally home! So incredibly in love with this little sleepyhead. Life is complete. #Rottweilerpuppy #mummysboy,” she captioned a photo of the sleeping puppy.

Mr. Piil paid tribute to the Bronx on his first anniversary a year later.

‘I couldn’t ask for a more incredible, bold, loyal, intelligent and protective buddy. You are my whole world,” she captioned a photo of the Bronx on the beach

The famous dog lover also had a sign on her door that read: ‘Beware of the Rottweiler’.

It remains unclear what prompted the dogs to attack their owner.

Since the nightmare attack, Ms Piil and the breeder who sold Bronx have received cruel criticism online.

The breeder who sold Harlem to Ms. Piil broke her silence, saying she knew the dog was “peaceful” and believes the owner’s actions must have caused the attack.

The breeder, who asked to remain anonymous, said Harlem came from a family of show dogs and was known as a “very calm, non-dominant dog” who was also very loving and good-natured.

“It’s not likely that a Rottweiler would attack someone for no reason,” she told The West this week.

‘In this case there must have been a dog fight between the two dogs and I feel that the owner may have gotten involved to try to separate the dogs and somehow got involved.

‘It is traumatic for any owner to see two dogs fighting. Especially if you try to separate them yourself.’

The breeder also hit back at claims that Harlem was bred for violence.

Bronx was put down by vets while Piil’s other dog – four-year-old Rottweiler Harlem – remains in a facility in the town of Cockburn as investigations into why the pair attacked continue.

‘We don’t breed dogs for fighting. We do not breed dogs for safety. We breed them mainly for show and to place them in family units,” she said.

“That dog’s bloodlines come from show lines, so they are definitely not known to (attack).”

She added online trolls accused Ms Piil of neglecting the dogs, saying both dogs were ‘very well maintained and very loved’.

Neighbor Bryn Spencer said he and another nearby resident heard Ms Piil’s screams just minutes before they tried to break up the attack.

However, the pair could not enter her backyard without endangering themselves.

“I heard ‘help, help, please help!'” Spencer told Nine News

‘I considered jumping the fence and going in to save her, but there were clearly two Rottweilers in there.

“I didn’t have a knife, I didn’t have anything really good to take out this dog.

‘I only had a bat. All I could do was watch this girl get mauled while I was punching the fence.”

Another neighbor pointed a hose at one of the dogs, distracting it for a moment.

“The dog stopped for a moment and looked at me to decide what to do next,” Mr Spencer said.

“I kept yelling at it and hitting the fence, and then the thing decided, ‘Stuff you,’ and it got the girl and dragged her behind the back corner.

Police tried to taser Bronx but were unsuccessful and were forced to shoot the dog in a desperate bid to stop the attack, while Ms Piil’s life was in danger.

Bronx was later euthanized while Harlem remained in custody.

“The dog will remain at the facility until the investigation surrounding the incident is completed,” said Michael Emery, Chief of Community Safety and Ranger Services for the City of Cockburn.

Western Australian Prime Minister Roger Cook has called for an investigation into the circumstances leading to the horrific attack.
