HIALEAH, FLA. (WSVN) - An animal attack sent a dog to the vet, and the owners are demanding action to be done to prevent a tragedy.
The terrifying dog attack in Hialeah was caught on camera, where neighbors claimed it is not the first time it has happened.
Surveillance video shows a pit bull suddenly charging toward a woman walking her family dog, and seconds later, the pit bull lunges, attacking both the woman and her small dog off camera.
The victim’s husband, Miguel, spoke to 7News in Spanish, stating he heard his wife’s screams and ran outside.

“I went outside, running towards my wife’s screams,” said Miguel
According to Miguel, he threw himself to the ground, doing everything he could to save his son’s dog.
“In that moment, I went running to throw myself, to cover the dog, but I fell,” said Miguel.
Eventually, the pit bull’s owner managed to pull the dog away.
The owner then left the scene without saying a word, according to Miguel.
“He didn’t do anything,” said Miguel.
The family’s dog suffered severe injuries and was rushed into emergency surgery.
After hours in the operating room, the dog is in stable condition and continues to recover.
Miguel said his wife was also injured but is okay.

“Dangerous,” said Miguel.
