Wild Dogs Invade US Airports!

[munitalP]

I should be working for No News with a thread title like that! Now on a serious note (joking aside)

"A FOUR-YEAR-OLD girl has been attacked by a US Customs and Border Control dog at Dulles airport, WUSA reported.

The station reported that the young girl was with her mother and younger sibling when she was bitten several times by the dog.

The girl was later taken to Washington Hospital Center in serious condition where she received 30 stitches to her mid-section as a result of the attack.

She was later released.

It was unclear why the dog attacked the child.

The grandmother of the attacked child told WUSA that the dog bit the girl around her mid-section and shook her like a rag doll.

When the mother tried to intervene, the dog attacked her also, biting her hand numerous times."

I hope the dog was shot on the spot

I hope the dog was shot on the spot

It probably will be put down. Not that that is much comfort for the bitten.

If that was my child I would be out for blood! Without knowing exactly what happened (ie if there was any provocation) I would say there was criminal negligence on behalf of the trainers and handlers of the animal.

For this to happen to a four year old will leave some pretty deep emotional scars...
