I am in tears. I don't know what to do, I feel like I should apologize to everyone here. I found out the following story is about my niece's dogs. I knew she wasn't the best Rott owner but you never dream it will happen this close to home. I'm sorry everyone :( :( :( . I am just sick. I hope that the boy will be OK, an I can only hope that my niece will never own another dog.


Dogs Maul Mid-Michigan Boy

A young boy was in critical condition Sunday night, after rottweilers mauled him. Fox 47 was the first to tell you about this story Saturday. Now his neighbors say it was just a matter of time.
Chuck DeYoung lives next door to 8-year-old Brandon Galey's dad. He said it's sad this happened, but he's glad the dogs have been taken away. He said he was afraid for his family's safety because the dogs are not kept in a fenced-in yard.
Saturday Brandon was playing in the backyard when he was almost mauled to death by 3 rottweilers. Dewitt Township police officer, Zackary Szakacs said he was shocked to find out the dogs are the family's pets. Officer Szackacs said Brandon's father's girlfriend looked out the back window and saw the dogs attacking him. She told police she ran out and got the dogs away from him and took him into the house. Officer Szackacs said the one thing that may have helped save Brandon's life is that he was wearing a bulky jacket that the dogs pulled off, along with some of his other clothing.
Officer Szackacs said the bites were the worst he's seen in his career. He had bites on his back, shoulders, legs, and chin. He said Brandon just kept yelling out the name Max, which is one of the dogs. But, they're not sure if one or all three attacked him.
I talked with some of Brandon's family members. They did not want to be interviewed, but said he is doing better. Police said Brandon is at Sparrow Hospital in the Pediatric Unit, Intensive Care. They also said the family signed the dogs over to Clinton County Animal Shelter to be destroyed.
DeYoung said he's glad someone is finally taking control of the dogs, so he and his kids can feel safe in their yard again.
