A 9-year-old girl from Bay Shore, Long Island, is recovering after a brutal attack by a neighbour’s pit bull left her with a partially detached ear and hundreds of stitches and staples. Daniella Schlauch was exiting her family car when the dog charged and bit her face. Her father, Pat Schlauch, leapt onto the animal to protect her. “He could’ve killed her,” he said, recounting the terrifying moments. Daniella sustained a concussion, wounds to her head, foot, and hand, and required emergency surgery. “It wouldn’t let go,” she said. The dog’s owner eventually called it off. Daniella is now recovering, but her family is shaken by the near-fatal incident, calling for awareness about dangerous pets in neighbourhoods.
