A SEVEN-year-old Chinhoyi boy suffered permanent facial and bodily disabilities after being mauled by a neighbour’s vicious Pitbull Terrier dogs recently.
The ravening canines, whose ownership is not legally permissible in Zimbabwe, descended on Samuel Phineas as he played outside his grandfather’s house in Chinhoyi’s Mapako Suburb and meted so savage a biting his face was left totally deformed.
They are famed for their power and ability to take down their targets with a ferocity unmatched in the dog world.
His family is are now seeking compensation for the permanent disabilities he sustained in the attack.
