The heroic neighbour of a three-year-old boy mauled by a dog said he "thought it was going to kill him' before he managed to drag the animal off.
Denis Jano suffered terrible injuries to his face and scalp after the XL bully clamped his head in its jaws as he played outside. He also suffered bruising to his arm and back. Only the swift action of neighbours, who fought to pull the snarling dog off terrified Denis, stopped the attack.
One resident grabbed the vicious dog "by the b*******" to make it release its grip on Denis. The XL bully has been destroyed following the attack on Monday in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, the Mirror reports.
