Pup was covered in blood after vicious XL bully attack

An XL bully was left covered in blood after viciously attacking a small dog during a walk.

Samantha Kneale, 37, from Maghull, Merseyside, was walking her chihuahua-shih tzu cross, Bruno, to go the park. However, during the trip, she came across two men walking an XL bully breed dog which appeared to be pulling on its lead.

Samantha claimed that one of the men walking the dog was then grabbing onto a school fence in an attempt to stop the XL bully from pulling. He eventually shouted at Samantha to "lift your dog because I can't control her", the Liverpool Echo reports.

She said: "We were just walking down the road to the park we always go to and I saw the dog being walked by two men and thought 'I haven't seen that dog before'. I go to the park all the time to meet up with my friends.

"The man was grabbing onto the school fence trying to keep control of the dog and he shouted "lift your dog because I can’t control her". The dog just broke the lead and came across the road and got my dog by the harness.

"It was ragging him around. The man walking the dog wasn't the owner, the other man didn't help, he just watched and looked terrified. At one point he shouted 'he's dead', so I thought he was gone.

"Two children went to ride past and saw it happening, they were screaming." A stranger eventually stopped his car while witnessing the incident and grabbed the XL bully's back legs before separating them.

This resulted in the dog losing its balance, giving just enough time to grab Bruno and take him to safety. I'm just so glad I wasn't with my little boy,
