Grandmother saves boy, seven, in rottweiler attack

A seven-year-old boy seriously injured during an attack by a rottweiler on a beach in Essex was saved by his grandmother, police said.

The boy suffered around 20 puncture wounds to his body and arms during the incident on Southend beach on Friday.

He remains in hospital after undergoing two lots of surgery.

Police said his grandmother had to pull the dog off the boy as it attacked him while he played in the sea. The dog's owner then ran off, they said.

The man's two rottweiler dogs ran into the water by the Eastern Esplanade, by Chelsea Avenue, and one dog mauled the boy.
'Terrifying ordeal'

During the attack, the boy was forced underwater prompting fears from his grandmother he would drown.

PC Rob Kirk, from Essex Police, said: "The boy's grandmother had to physically pull the dog from the boy for fear it was going to drown the child or continue to bite him to death.

"It must have been a terrifying ordeal for all concerned."

Police said after the grandmother pulled the dog away, both dogs and their owner ran back onto the promenade, then over the road and up Chelsea Avenue towards Southchurch Park.

Mr Kirk added: "He allowed this dog to be dangerously out of control in a public place and a young lad has been left with horrific injuries, both physical and emotional I am sure.

"Please tell me who this dog walker is so we can take appropriate action to ensure it does not happen again."

Poor little lad, he must have been terrified
Another waste of oxygen owner who'll attract the usual hysterical herd mentality people calling for a ban on this beautiful breed

oddly enough saw youtube video of a rottie attacking another dog on a beach with the owner doing nothing and then walking away, thought it may be the same but that one was in mexio.

Such a shame, something really needs to be done

Poor little kid, dogs aren't even allowed on our beaches at the moment, not til October as they are banned during the summer so this should never have happened. People make me sick, so many round here parading their macho dogs off hardly ever on lead while the rest of us do what we can to uphold the laws especially in the summer when shcools out.
Hope they find out who this moron is and i'll re open this thread if I find anything out.

Hope the little boy recovers without any mental hang ups but it's doubtful as this must have been terrifying for the poor lad.
