A terrified schoolgirl suffered horrific injuries after being savaged by a huge dog - in a canine training class. Annabell Rowdon, eight, was 'mauled like a rag doll' by the large Anatolian Shepherd which attacked her out of the blue and pulled her to the ground.
The animal ripped the flesh from her left forearm breaking both bones before it was pulled off by her horrified grandfather Steven Rowdon, 63, and a dog trainer. She was rushed to Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambs, where she underwent five hours of surgery for the broken bones and nine nasty cuts.
Her mum Sonia Rowden, 34, has described the attack as 'unacceptable' and says once they identify the owner of the dog, she'll be taking legal action against them. Cambridge Police are currently investigating the incident on June 11 at 10am.
