Jack Fox was bitten by the Beast in November 2021.
The two pet owners were sentenced to several years in prison after a dog attacked a 10-year-old boy in Wales. 19-year-old Brandon Hayden was sentenced on Friday to four and a half years in prison by a court in the capital of the Cardiff region, while 29-year-old Amy Salter was sentenced to three years in prison. Both of them are never allowed to own a dog.
The animal – American Bully – attacked Jack Fox in November 2021 in a house near the city of Caerphilly and severely injured its neck and head. Police officers shot the dog – they had to pull the trigger seven times to stop the aggressor. Ten-year-old Jack Lis knew the woman but was not related.
The condemned man confessed to being the owner of the attacking dog. He had gotten the 52-pound beast just a few days earlier: the previous owner had given it away for free on Facebook and mentioned that “he’s not good with other dogs.”
I have noticed aggressively several times
The woman looked after the Beast at the time of the crime. They both should have known the animal was dangerous as it had already attacked a neighboring dog, and in a few cases a few days earlier, the judge said. The dog’s behavior can be seen on video from surveillance cameras. Nevertheless, Beast was allowed to move freely in the 29-year-old’s house.
According to a statement made in court by Jack’s mother, Emma Whitfield, she said: “When I close my eyes, I can see the dog and its teeth and hear it barking. I have strong anxiety attacks and terrible flashbacks. ” He was at a friend’s house, “a place where he should be safe.” Whitfield is devastated: “I’d give my life to protect Jack.”
