The mother and father of a four-year-old boy, who died from a dog attack in 2009, have spoken out after hearing another child was tragically killed by a dog this week. John-Paul Massey's parents say they do not want another child to die in the same horrific way.
Angela McGlynn and John Massey are both backing a national campaign by The Mirror to change the law. They have spoken about the overwhelming grief they still feel after their son was mauled to death.
The parents made the choice to speak out after hearing that another child – three-year-old Daniel Twigg – was killed by a dog on Sunday. John-Paul’s mum Angela McGlynn, 51, said: “When I see other children have been attacked, it breaks my heart. I don’t want anyone else to have to live my life.
