Mother and Son Attacked by Dogs on Holiday

A mother from Cambridge, Ms. Daniels, has expressed her distress after allegedly being attacked by two dogs while on holiday with her young sons at a caravan park. The incident occurred when she and her son, Alfie, were returning to their caravan, and they were confronted by a Mastiff and a smaller dog that appeared unexpectedly. Ms. Daniels reported that her son was scratched on the arm, while she sustained four facial scratches and a bite on her shoulder. In the aftermath of the attack, Ms. Daniels is advocating for greater responsibility among dog owners, suggesting that dogs should not be permitted in caravan parks due to safety concerns. She recounted the harrowing experience, stating, "Out of the blue, a small dog and a big dog were absolutely pelting towards my son," and described her struggle to fend off the larger dog, which she believes was a Mastiff. The physical injuries she sustained include significant scratches on her face and bruises on her legs. Local police confirmed their attendance at the incident and spoke with the dog owner involved. Ms. Daniels emphasized the need for stricter regulations regarding dogs in communal spaces, arguing that the current rules are insufficient to prevent such dangerous encounters. The caravan park management stated that their policy requires dogs to be kept on leads at all times and that the offending dogs were removed the following day in accordance with their zero-tolerance policy.
