Family dog's attack on great-grandmother leaves indelible memories TN Nobody could have predicted a family dog's on a great-grandmother, especially the great-grandmother. Often, she went outside and put BJ, the 90 pound pit bull, back in his kennel and yard when he escaped it; he had never challenged her before. Nor could she fathom the ferocious strength of the dog as it almost ripped her arm off, while she attempted to keep it from her throat...  [Tallahassee Democrat]
