This is a horrible thing to have happened to the mother and daughter. Good for the dog, a really good dog!

good grief, why would anyone steal a two-year-old? They're too young to be sent down the pits or to learn to cook. Anyway, good dog. (I'm sure a cat would have done the same, unless it was in on the plot.)

I assumed that all dogs would be protective, my two boys were large and snarly and I was more concerned that they would seriously injure anyone who threatened me.

I was surprised to read of people attacked and killed whilst Fido just barked.

This dog proved his worth.

Horrifying! Thank goodness the dog bit the person. What a hero!

Well in that dog, there's plenty of nob-heads where I live but I can't imagine anything like that.

I hope the dog tòok a really big bite, hopefully one that needs medical attention.

Horrendous! Well done that dog!

Wonder if there's any useful DNA from the dog's teeth?

I wonder if this was a distraction to steal the dog. Get the mother to run after the child whilst a third person steals the dog.

what sort of dog was it?

[barry1010]

Nobody knows, dave

[burlyshirley]

That's horrendous, thank God she's safe. Good boy xx

[tiggerblue10]

Well done that dog.

[Patsy33]

I thought that, Barry. 9.41

[barry1010]

Or good girl, shirley :)

[Arksided]

A bit of an assumption here but whatever the breed, knew something was amiss/wrong… still brilliant on the pooch.

[burlyshirley]

Lol I knew somebody would come on and say that barry.

It had to be me
