A helpless dad watched on in horror as his beloved dog was savaged by two bull terriers while out on a walk.
Black Labrador Marley's injuries were so severe the 10-year-old pooch had to be put down by vets following the vicious incident.
Gary Donald, 48, had taken Marley for a short walk near his home in Montrose when the attack happened on Garrison Road in the Barracks at around 10.45pm on Saturday.
