Mother and boyfriend charged in case of pit bull chewing off baby’s toes

A four month old boy is still hospitalized Wednesday night, after a pit bull chewed his toes off a couple of nights ago.

The baby’s mother and her boyfriend are charged with felony child abuse. The couple was sleeping in the same room as the baby, when a 12 week old pit bull they were dog-sitting chewed off his toes.

The dog has tested negative for rabies.

Two other children who were in the house at the time of the incident have been placed in the care of relatives.
