Cllr Doran said: “I would ask the owners of dogs who have them in public places to make sure they are properly restrained or even muzzled. This was a particularly vicious attack and the bite the man received was one of the worst the hospital had seen. “I visited the gentleman after this incident and it has caused him a lot of distress and concern about the damage that this attack could have caused if a child had been at the receiving end. “It is concerning that this dog and its owner has not yet been traced and I would ask anyone who has witnessed the attack or has any information about who owns the dog to contact the relevant authorities before this dog attacks someone again.”]]>
