SPRING, Texas (KTRK) -- A dog that attacked a 3-year-old girl earlier this month and left her with severe injuries to her face has been euthanized, according to the victim's family.
After days of court proceedings last week, a justice of the peace issued the ruling saying the dog, named Kingston, would have to be put down. The dog's owner decided not to appeal the ruling.
On Jan. 9, the dog bit 3-year-old Ronin Waldroup at the Loose Caboose restaurant in Old Town Spring. As the little girl entered the restaurant, the dog, who was seen wearing a service vest, bit her face, family members said.
