Shannon BeadorArchie the dog was attacked by another puppy on a recent outing.

“Archie was bitten by another dog while out for a walk today,” Real Housewives of Orange County The 60-year-old star captioned Instagram photos of Archie and his injured nose on Monday, June 10. “The dog was locked on his front porch but started barking and stuck his face out trying to bite Archie through the slats in the fence.”

Beador noted that the attack happened “within seconds” and that she “tried to pull Archie away from the other dog.” “The owner suggested that maybe I walked too close to his fence 😡,” she added. “Archie has never been in a dog fight in all his 8 years!!”

Beador ended her post with “advice for people walking their dogs in Corona del Mar, California.” She wrote, “Some dogs can attack your dog through their own fence. Archie has been checked by the vet and is on antibiotics for the wounds. He will be OK. I love him so much!!! 🥰🥰🥰.”

The post showed snaps of Archie lying on the ground with a bloody snout. Beador zoomed in on her dog’s nose to show the scratches and cuts Archie sustained in the incident. Fans flooded the post’s comments with well wishes for Archie as he recovers from the attack.

Beador adopted her sweet pup in 2016 after a fan tweeted her a photo of Archie, asking if her family wanted to adopt a dog. “He grew up in San Francisco at the Four Seasons Hotel because they have dorms up there. And people were working, so the dog was home alone all the time. But yeah, he was raised fancy,” she recalled in a 2019 Bravo video. “He’s so much fun and so protective. He has these little cute quirks and we’re all in love.”

Archie made headlines with Beador last year after she was arrested for hit-and-run and driving under the influence. The reality TV star drove into a residential property and crashed into a house in September 2023. She then got out of the car with Archie and pretended to take him for a walk when police arrived at the scene.

Animal control was involved in the investigation of the incident because Archie was in the car while Beador was driving drunk. “We are investigating whether there were any problems or cruelty related to her dog,” Steve Oberon from the Newport Beach Police Department said We weekly in September 2023. “There are no laws to protect animals, but there are laws against animal cruelty, and we are looking into those.” (The Animal Welfare Agency’s investigation was reportedly closed a month later.)
