We didn't have any pain response or any feeling of the feet.  It was pretty severe and untreatable.\"Winter Park Veterinary Hospital takes care of all of the swans at Lake Eola.According to park rangers, a man released the dog from its leash and allowed it to attack the swan.A witness, who took pictures of the incident, said she believed the act was intentional.\"She alleges this was an intentional act.  That the owner released the dog,\" said Orlando police Sgt.
