Woman seeks stronger laws on dogs that attack pets
DeKALB – Lilly meant the world to Doris Sernovitz.
The 60-year-old DeKalb resident would take the schnauzer on walks through the neighborhood. Walks are the only kind of exercise Sernovitz can do because of her degenerative disc disease and arthritis. But Lilly helped.
“Lilly was like a therapy dog for me,” Sernovitz said. “I weighed over 200 pounds when I got her, and over six months because I walked her, I lost 70 pounds and kept it off. She was my reason for getting up in the morning.”
