Toddler attacked by family's pet Husky

MASSACHUSETTS -- A child in Stoughton is recovering from a dog attack.

Police say the two-year-old boy was attacked and bitten by the family's 11 year-old Husky.


The dog has been taken by Animal Control.

The child was taken to the hospital by ambulance, but was not seriously hurt.

[Another media story says that police say the injuries 'were serious but not life-threatening'.

The boy’s name was not released and the only information available on his condition came from a man who answered the door of the family’s home Sunday night.

“He’s fine,” said the man, who identified himself as the boy’s father. “Thank you for your concern.”]
