Lady Gaga's Dog Walker Breaks Silence After "Very Close Call With Death"

Lady Gaga’s dog walker, Ryan Fischer broke his silence days after he was shot in the chest and two of Gaga’s French Bulldogs were kidnapped. The French bulldogs have since returned home safely, after Gaga offered a $500,000 reward, no questions asked. In a two-part emotional Instagram post, Fischer spoke of his “angel” Asia, who was left behind as the shooters got away with Gaga’s dogs, Koji and Gustav. Ryan described how Asia stood by his side as he lay in a pool of his own blood and crying out for help. Thankfully Fischer will recover and he expressed his gratitude to his medical team, first responders, and of course Lady Gaga.  He said that his "life has taken a very sudden and unexpected turn."

"[Four] days ago, while a car sped away and blood poured from my gun shot wound, an angel trotted over and laid next to me. My panicked screams calmed as I looked at her, even though it registered that the blood pooling around her tiny body was my own," Fisher wrote, referring to Gaga's dog Miss Asia, who escaped the dognapping. "I cradled Asia as best I could, thanked her for all the incredible adventures we'd been on together, apologized that I couldn't defend her brothers, and then resolved that I would still try to save them ... and myself."

"Hopeful that my calm(ish) and forceful pleas for the urgency of my care as well as the focused descriptions of the dogs would be enough to help me and get enough police and media attention to find the boys, I looked backed at my guardian angel," Fischer wrote. "I smiled at her shaking form, thankful that at least she would be okay."

Over the weekend, a woman brought the dogs, Koji and Gustav, to the LAPD's Olympic Community Police Station. The woman who dropped off the dogs appeared to be "uninvolved and unassociated" with Wednesday night's attack, but it wasn't immediately clear how she obtained the dogs.

Fischer ends his post saying, "Your support as a friend, despite your own traumatic loss from your kids, was unwavering," he wrote. "I love you and thank you."
