“We’re getting the kids in the car, and I see Moose running out the front door,” Sean explained of the incident, adding that the dog “made a beeline right at me, and just lunged and started attacking me again.”
“It took everything I had to control this dog—and I’m 220 pounds,” he noted. “If it were anyone else, he would have killed my children or my wife, but I was able to hold him for 10 minutes until the cops came.”
And since the attacks, Sean shared that he has been working with animal control and a no-kill shelter to figure out the best option for Moose, adding, “I don’t blame Moose a bit.” But nonetheless, the events that transpired were nothing less than traumatic.
“I have scarred arms for the rest of my life, but I can live with that,” Sean said, admitting that Catherine—who he married in 2014 after meeting her on the 17th season of The Bachelor—will sometimes catch him “cringing every once in a while” from trauma. “From a psychological perspective, I think I’ll be OK.”
