MONTANA -- A 7-year-old girl is recuperating after she was viciously attacked by four American Bulldogs over the weekend.
The young girl suffered deep lacerations and skin tearing from head to toe on Saturday and was taken to Kalispell Regional Medical Center for treatment.
The girl and her family from out-of-state were visiting friends in Creston where the dog owner lives and the child was playing with the dogs in the yard when all four of them attacked her.
Then the dog owner called 911 for help and the little girl was transported by ambulance to Kalispell Regional Medical Center.

Flathead County Undersheriff Jordan White says that's when animal control officers and deputies responded to the home and took all four dogs to the animal shelter for quarantine.
"From our experience of dealing with the dogs since they've been in custody, the dogs do show significant signs of aggression."
The four bulldogs will be quarantined while the Flathead County Sheriff's Office completes their investigation into the incident.
The Flathead County Sheriff's Office is expecting charges to be filed this week and could include a misdemeanor of having vicious dogs.
