An Edinburgh dad had to shield his one-year-old son as two large dogs mauled a chihuahua in broad daylight.
Scott McLaren said he just dropped his wife off to have her lashes done on Walter Scott Avenue when the savage attack took place at around 11.15am on Wednesday March 22. He was taking his son to the local Scotmid for a drink when they heard a chilling scream.
When he turned he saw two large dogs attacking a much smaller pooch which looked like a chihuahua. He said they angled in from both sides as their frantic owner tried in vain to stop them from pouncing on the defenceless animal.
