Tragic Death: 1-Year-Old Boy Fatally Attacked by Dog in East Hartford

A one-year-old baby boy in Connecticut died after being attacked by a Dalmatian pitbull mix, prompting an investigation. This incident follows a recent dog attack in New Jersey where a baby was killed and its parents injured. Pitbull attacks appear to be on the rise in the US, with the breed responsible for a majority of fatal dog attacks in recent years. The tragic story also includes a man mauled to death by his 13 pitbulls in Los Angeles, and a toddler who underwent 12 surgeries after being attacked by pitbulls in Oklahoma.
