09 July 2020 Perhaps a sudden movement or a gesture that the dog has perceived as "danger" and reacted.

At the moment there are only hypotheses to explain why the dog attacked his owner, a 2 year old boy. The boy was seriously injured in the face. It happened last night in Parma and the fact was reported in the local newspaper.

The baby, according to a first reconstruction, was playing with the animal when it suddenly bit him. The parents of the child who called 118 immediately intervened.
Initially the worst was feared since the child was losing a lot of blood but the situation during the night improved markedly. He is now under observation in the maxillofacial department of the Maggiore hospital in Parma. The prognosis is 30 days.  

The investigations continue on what happened. The dog, according to the first testimonies collected, had never been aggressive.
