A baby boy has died after he was attacked by his family’s mastiff dog during his first birthday party. A day after turning one, Jeremiah Eshew-Shahan was at his grandmother’s house in Las Vegas when he crawled over to the dog – a mastiff-rhodesian mix weighing about 120 pounds – and started to pet him. The dog then attacked the baby, sinking his teeth into Jeremiah’s head and shaking him.
THERE are calls for more suitable dangerous dog laws after a mastiff-cross mauled another dog to death and bit a woman at Flinders Park. http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/south-australia/dog-breaks-collar-attacks-woman/story-e6frea83-1226422663719
A mother took on a berserk dog with her bare hands after the snarling bull mastiff threatened her two young children in a park. Karen Greaves, 31, suffered horrific injuries as she grabbed its jaws to save terrified youngsters, Dylan, five, and four-month-old Amelia, who had already seen the dog rip to pieces their King Charles spaniel puppy, Molly. Their ordeal happened just after Mrs Greaves and the children had enjoyed a picnic in the park.
