Josh Hymas was walking his dog Ralph when the off-lead devil dog emerged and went on the attack.The terrifying incident was caught on camera, and shows the Bully going for Josh's dog, which was on a lead, as he battled to protect it.
Father-of-one Josh claims the beast carried out the savage attack after managing to break out of its home by jumping a six-foot tall fence, The Mirror reports.The vicious mutt is seen darting out of an opening in the house not visible on the video before going straight for little Ralph.At first, Josh appears to be allowing the two pets to meet as he holds the Bully on its back, while maintaining as much distance with it from Ralph as possible.But suddenly, the beast jerks its body and continues with its aggression, appearing to latch its powerful jaws onto the pup's back.Josh picks Ralph up and starts spinning on the stop as the Bully continues to gnash and jump up.
Other neighbours emerge from their homes but initially stayed back from the feral creature. At one point, a man goes into the owners' garden, picks up a "fireplace", which he then smashes on to the dog in the hopes of stopping it.
Josh spoke of the terrifying moment when he was pulled to the floor. Thinking his dog was fatally mauled, he lay on the pup hoping he'd stop the monster from tearing him apart.Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile,
