Thanks Kahskye....I just dont know what to make of this whole story.....Ive never heard of anything like it before.The above link didn't say where the mom was. I copied/pasted this for you. The mother was apparently somewhere in the house.
"The initial assault happened inside the family residence and the dog became frightened when the mother screamed," said Det. Capt. Larry Eggert, with the Lockport Police Dept.
The child's mother watched as the child was taken outside, dragged by the dog. Neighbors rescued the child outdoors.
