A six-year-old girl was left across her body after being attacked by a dog on her way home from school.

A six-year-old girl was left with a broken arm and nose, and 22 puncture wounds across her body after being attacked by a dog on her way home from school.

The neighbour was dog-sitting, and when another young girl who lived there freed the dog from its cage, Ava says the dog lunged at her. The girl was surrounded by paramedics, so at first her mother assumed she’d been hit by a car. Ava was rushed to hospital where she spent a fortnight undergoing surgery on her face to reattach her nose.‘We’re backed up on bills for her and we need to pay for support we need for her,’ said Sherrell, from Stafford, Texas.

Sherrell Anderson, 32, sees Ava crying in front of the mirror and tells her ‘she’ll always be pretty’ Sherrell said the dog ‘immediately’ went for her daughter, attacking her from the waist down before clenching her arm as she tried to run away.
