A dog walker who was tragically mauled to death by an XL Bully in a vicious attack weighed just 8st and did not stand a chance against the crazed animal, his heartbroken friend has revealed.
Ian Langley, 54, was set upon on the estate in Sunderland on Tuesday by an enormous soon to be banned brown and white XL Bully which grabbed him by the neck as he bent down to pick up his Patterdale terrier pup.
The dog is said to have 'torn out the throat' of Mr Langley, who was left needing CPR for around 15 minutes as emergency services fought to staunch heavy bleeding from his wounds.
