Dog Bites Off Little Boy's Finger

In the city of Bacliff, sources say that five-year-old boy was playing with one of his neighbors dogs when he had a finger bitten off during afternoon hours on Monday. The first responders to the medical emergency found the severed finger and the boy had to be taken to a local hospital by air ambulance. At the hospital, doctors worked to reattach the amputated appendage.

It is said that the dog bite incident occurred at 5:20 PM.  The boy had allegedly been playing with a canine that is believed to be a Labrador when the dog bit off the boy's right hand ring finger.  Later, the missing finger was found and placed on ice as the boy was taken to a hospital in Houston. The dog was then seized by Galveston County Animal Control.

Despite the highly traumatic event new sources that the boy remained quite calm.  The case remains under investigation and police have not issued any citations or charges.
