A former couple in the United Kingdom have been jailed after their two-year-old daughter suffered a brain injury when she was mauled by an out-of-control family dog. According to the BBC, the incident took place in 2018 in Bradford. The girl had been left alone with a German Shephard, which had just given birth to puppies, while her mother and father were upstairs. She suffered multiple injuries, including skull fractures and bleeding on the brain.
The woman failed to call the cops for eight minutes after the horrifying attack, the outlet reported. Her former partner had left the two-year-old alone with the dog despite an earlier warning not to.
Following the incident, the girl was rushed to a hospital where she underwent significant surgery to drain a bleed on her brain, The Sun reported. Doctors also found that the toddler had bruising on shoulders, back, legs and arms that were unlikely to have been caused by the dog attack.
