Vick Zidko was walking down the stairs in his family home in Doncaster when their dog, which was bought on Facebook just two weeks prior, clamped its jaws on his head.
After five days in hospital Vick had the torn-off piece of scalp reattached - it is now under a large patch on his head.
He was six years old.
Forklift truck driver Vitalijus told The Mirror the family had thought 'long and hard' about getting a dog and described Diesel as 'really soft' and 'jumping around'.
Not a description I'd expect to hear about what was described as an 'American Staffordshire terrier'...
Officers are investigating the incident and the dog was destroyed by police.
The parents should be charged with child endangerment.
As should these parents:A child who was attacked by a dog in Doncaster has been taken to hospital with "potentially life-changing injuries".
On Thursday, May 11, South Yorkshire Police were called to South Street in Highfields, Doncaster. They had received reports of a child being attacked by a dog.Officers at the scene seized an American Staffordshire terrier breed dog from a property on the street, which was later put down.
Any 'parent' who has one of these things in the house when they have small children doesn't deserve the name...
