UNITED KINGDOM -- A Rottweiler which mauled a Jack Russell to death in Tewkesbury has been put down by its owner.
Buddie, a 20-month-old Jack Russell, was attacked by the dog while their owners walked them in a field in Northway on Tuesday afternoon.
He was taken to a vets but died from his injuries.
Police said yesterday that the rottweiler's owner was so upset by the incident that she decided to have her pet put down. She contacted them to tell them what she had done.
Officers said Debby Kennedy, Buddie's owner who lives in Northway, did not want the police to take the matter any further and was very sad that both owners had lost their dogs because of the incident.
