Tommy Lee's wife Brittany Furlan saves pet dog from coyote attack in their backyard

Send Push

Motley Crue rocker Tommy Lee’s wife Brittany Furlan has saved their dog from being taken by a coyote in the backyard of their LA home.

Harrowing footage she posted online showed the comedian screaming ‘no!’ as she rushed out to rescue their pet pooch Neena when the coyote grabbed her in its mouth before trying to run off over a wall.

Luckily Brittany was able to save Neena from the coyote’s clutches and take her inside to safety. But she warned other pet owners that coyotes, which are related to wolves and common in North America, are ‘getting more brazen and hungry’.

Sharing the clip, which appeared to be taken from their home security cameras, the 38-year-old told her two million Instagram followers: “Trigger warning. I was letting the dogs out to pee and I was watching them and a coyote came and grabbed Neena in broad daylight. Please be very careful with your dogs. I’ve lived here for four years and I’ve never seen one coyote and then today this happened. They are desperate.”

Tommy is also seen rushing outside after Brittany in the footage as she yells: ‘Oh my God! A coyote grabbed Neena. We can’t leave the dogs out, we can’t leave the dogs out!” Tommy is heard saying: “F•••! Oh My God!”

Giving fans an update in the caption, Brittany added: “Neena is safe. I climbed up the wall and grabbed her out of its mouth. Thank God she’s a little bit fat because he couldn’t make it over the wall with her.

“If it was Teenie [their other dog] she would have been gone. This is in broad daylight at 1pm. They are getting more brazen and hungry. Please be safe. I’m not even letting the dogs out anymore. This is ridiculous. Hug your babies extra tight.”

Followers were quick to comment below, with one writing: “Omg I would be so traumatised. So glad you got out there fast.” Another said: “Thanks God you saved her. My heart sank when he grabbed her and you screamed. I hope she’s doing okay!!!”

A third commented: “That’s terrifying. We had a huge one in our yard in broad daylight recently. They are ruthless. I’m so glad your baby is ok.” A fourth posted: “I’m in tears after seeing this. OMFG I’m so glad she’s ok. Thank God you were right there.” A fifth added: “Oh my gosh! So glad she’s ok. You had super human powers getting her.”

Brittany later told TMZ that Neena didn’t suffer any injuries as the coyote only grabbed her fur and luckily didn’t puncture any skin during the incident. But the experience has understandably left the Lee household shaken.

Comic and social media star Brittany is 61-year-old Tommy's fourth wife. The pair got married on Valentine's Day 2019, exactly one year after they got engaged. They first started dating in 2017.

Prior to that he was famously married to actress and Baywatch star Pamela Anderson, who he shares son Brandon, 28, and 26-year-old Dylan with. Tommy and Pam tied the knot after a whirlwind four day romance in 1995, but split in 1998.

Tommy was also married to actress Heather Locklear from 1986 to 1993. His first wife was Playboy model Elaine Starchuk, who he married in 1984 before divorcing a year later.
