Colette Bordelon is a reporter with Denver7.

Bob Dowell is originally from Littleton but has lived in Winter Park for the last four years. His two dogs, Sydney and Kosci, always remind him to take them out for walks.

Dowell and the dogs were not far from their home when they turned a corner and saw the mother and baby roughly 30 yards away. Dowell said they immediately turned and walked in the opposite direction. Stunned and not knowing what else to do, Dowell charged at the moose and rammed into it with his shoulder. Sydney was able to wiggle out of her collar and run away from the moose.

His son rushed to Dowell and the dogs as Sydney located her family after running away from the attack. Dowell took the dogs to the veterinarian immediately and was shocked they only sustained cuts and bruises.
