TEXAS -- Doctors in the Lower Valley are closely watching a little girl attacked by a dog in downtown Brownsville.
We are told the dog that mauled her did not have rabies shots. That worries her parents. The little girl will have to be vaccinated for rabies. She is currently at a children's hospital in San Antonio getting treatment.
"When I went over there to see it, it looked really bad. It looked like the dog had ripped the girl's face up real bad. We didn't know her status, but it looked terrible," says George Moros, a neighbor.
The dog was chained up at the time of the attack. Code enforcement officers cited the dog's owner for not having it vaccinated.
