Police have seized a Staffordshire bull terrier which allegedly bit the head off a family pet dog in a vicious attack.
Gemma Antell claimed her pet Pomeranian, Elvis, was decapitated outside the home of her mother-in-law in Warrington on Saturday after the larger dog entered the front garden, dragging its handler behind it.
Ms Antell says her family were left traumatised by the attack After the attack on Elvis, a member of the public took a picture of the Staffordshire bull terrier and the woman holding its leash, whose arm was covered in blood.
Gemma posted the picture onto Twitter in an attempt to identify the owner.
"The dog literally ripped his head off," Ms Antell said in a post on Facebook. "It ripped Elvis in half. It is my son's birthday and my kids are in tears and my whole family are traumatised.
"The worst part of this is the dog 'owners' witnessed the attack and just walked off saying it was not their fault.
"Two poor children witnessed the attack as well as my mother-in-law and passers-by. I have added (to Facebook) the two photos of the incident as well as photos of poor Elvis who is obviously a tiny harmless family pet.
"The next time this happens it might not be a family pet it could be a local child!!!"
After the owner was identified, police visited an address at midnight on Sunday where they seized a white Staffordshire bull terrier.
Cheshire police have confirmed they are investigating the incident and have asked for witnesses to call them on 101 or to ring Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
Chief Inspector Darren Hebden, said: "This was a horrendous attack and was clearly very distressing for the owners to witness.
"I am aware of pictures that have been circulated on social media which will undoubtedly cause concern for the community but can I reassure people that we have now seized the offending dog so there is no risk to the general public.
"We will be speaking to the owners in due course and will do all we can to deal with the incident appropriately within the guidelines of the law. Extra patrols will be in the area to talk to concerned residents and address any issues in the area."
