Doctors have been forced to amputate a man's legs and parts of his hands after he suffered sepsis believed to be caused by being licked by a dog. Greg Manteufel, 48, was exhibiting flu-like symptoms and becoming delirious when bruises began appearing across his face and body. Within moments of being admitted to the Wisconsin-area hospital at the end of June, Mr Manteufel went into septic shock.
