GRAPHIC IMAGE WARNING: The 72-year-old pensioner was left disfigured for life after the attack
The son of a Scots grandad who had his thumb ripped off by a devil dog has hit out at Police Scotland and prosecutors for their lack of action after the attack. The American Bulldog, named Pablo, mauled the 72-year-old pensioner as he tried to protect his own pet dog in Blackburn, West Lothian, in July 2021.
The pensioner’s son, David Jones, told the Daily Record how the family warned police the beast would attack again but were initially told to report it to the local dog warden. He said: “My dad has been like a different person since this happened. “They just kept saying it wasn’t a criminal matter and was an issue for the dog warden. After we kept pushing, they finally reported it to the Crown Office who then dropped the case due to a lack of evidence.
He said his father was “traumatised” by the incident and was left unable to write due to being left handed. The animal then allegedly attacked a Yorkshire Terrier known as Mini, bit it repeatedly on the body and inflicted fatal injuries on it, failing to desist when she commanded it to do so.
