A terrifying moment shocked locals in Miaoli’s Sanyi Township recently, when a black dog without a leash suddenly attacked a family walking by. Two sisters, aged 3 and 9 were bitten on their face, limbs, and head and leaving them traumatized. Authorities say the dog’s owner could face legal consequences for failing to restrain the animal.
A black dog with a collar but no leash watches a parent and a girl walk by and goes back inside.
But then, a mother with three kids passes by. And the dog suddenly jumps at the youngest child aggressively.
The mother lunged at the dog to let her kids escape. The girl managed to unclamp herself from the dog’s mouth, but staggered in fear. She sustained bite wounds on her limbs, shoulders, head and face. A traumatic experience.

Heard the commotion
I heard children shrieking so I rushed out. The dog had lunged at them! The kid was screaming, and there was blood on her face. It was quite scary.
Two girls, aged 3 and 9, were taken to the hospital for the wounds. A video of the incident was posted online to remind pet owners to keep their dogs under control.

A woman and three children were walking by a private residence on woodcarving street when a dog bit two of the children, causing injuries that required medical treatment.
The dog’s owner accompanied the victims to the hospital and went to the police station to give a statement. Since the dog was not properly restrained, the owner may be held legally responsible for negligence leading to injury.

苗栗三義鄉,日前發生,家長帶3名孩童前往參加木雕節,行經木雕街時,卻遭附近住家飼養的狗咬傷,其中3歲和9歲的孩童都被咬到,受傷送醫。
店門口的小狗戴著項圈,卻沒繫上繩鍊,先是看到一名家長帶女童經過,黑狗起身後又回來店門口。
過沒多久,一名母親牽著3個孩子路過,沒想到狗相中最小的孩子,發動攻擊!
當時母親見狀一把拽住狗,好讓孩子逃脫,小女童從狗嘴中逃生,嚇得一度踉蹌。但身上還是被咬得遍體麟傷,手腳肩頭還有頭部臉上都有被咬傷的痕跡,看不到的傷痕,還有心理驚嚇指數破表。
