Boy, 5, said 'she didn't mean to' after family dog tore off his cheek

A heartbroken family had to have their ‘sweet’ dog put down after she ripped the cheek off a five-year-old boy.But it ended in tragedy when she attacked him, leaving him with torn ligaments and unable to smile.

His mum Amanda, 35, believes the attack could have happened because the dog was eating some steak and when Brantley went to pet her, she may have thought he was trying to take the food. Amanda, from, Wentzville, Missouri, said: ‘Christopher pulled her off and Brantley was laying there holding his face together.

‘I told the kids she’d been taken to sleep. They are devastated, especially Brantley. He asks about her all of the time.

That's so sad.
