Child Mauled by Dogs in Wallaceburg

A young Wallaceburg boy is being treated in hospital in Michigan after being mauled by two dogs. 

Around 5 o’clock Monday afternoon, two kids were playing with their babysitter at Jaycee Park when two dogs escaped from their home and attacked the youngest child.

A man and woman ran to help – a six-year-old boy was able to get to safety, but a three-year-old was seriously hurt.

The child was taken to the Sydenham District Hospital, but has since been transferred to the States for further treatment.

The babysitter suffered non-life threatening injuries, was treated in hospital and released.

The dogs are now under quarantine with PAW Animal Rescue.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Constable Ed Vannoord  at edmondv@chatham-kent.ca or 519-436-6600 extension #8668. Anonymous callers may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
