An eight year old boy and a fifteen year old girl were attacked by two Pit Bulls (or Pit Bull like dogs) yesterday in NZ with the boy being hospitalised with several large bites to his legs. The dogs were considered dangerous by the caretaker 'owner' and were usually chained up all day. But apparantly on at least a few occasions they somehow broke away and wandered around and people steered clear of them. It is just another instance of bad owner-mad dog/s.
