<\/p>\nA traumatised mother watched on in horror as her beloved family pet was torn apart by an American Bully XL puppy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cammy Maguire’s Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Beau was killed on Wednesday evening as she walked it near the family home in Chessington, south-west London.<\/p>\n
The ‘harmless’ pet was left with ‘its leg hanging off’ after a six-month-old Bully XL broke free from the 10-year-old girl walking it, Cammy claimed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 39-year-old said the out-of-control pup fatally mauled tiny Beau before allegedly taking a chunk out of a Good Samaritan’s hand, leaving her ‘needing hospital treatment’.<\/p>\n
Heartbroken Cammy said her two young children, Sienna, 12, and Jack 13, were in ‘hysterics’ when they heard Beau had died and that her partner Daniel Connery was ‘furious’.<\/p>\n

Becoming the latest person to demand the Government bans Bully XLs from Britain, secondary school office manager Cammy told MailOnline: ‘Something needs to be done. This can\u2019t happen to another family. It\u2019s just ripped us apart.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘My children are In bits. I\u2019ve never experienced anything quite so traumatic in all my life. These dogs need to be banned. Next time it could be a baby that’s killed.’<\/p>\n
The bloody attack took place shortly after 5.30pm in Drake Road, Chessington. It came as a debate over whether or not Bully XLs should be outlawed in Britain continues to rage.<\/p>\n
Cammy claimed she spotted the young girl walking the ‘scary-looking and aggressive’ dog on the green off the street.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The mother-of-two, who had been walking eight-year-old Beau in the green since he was a puppy, said the Bully XL charged at the little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘All of the sudden I heard this girl scream “sorry, sorry I can\u2019t stop him”,’ recounted Cammy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Neighbours rushed to a screaming Cammy’s aid, with one woman getting her hand bitten as she wrenched the Bully off Beau, she said. Jack is pictured with Beau<\/p>\n
‘He was dragging her along really fast. He got hold of Beau and grabbed his leg and just would not let go.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘The girl could not do anything. She was only 10. She should never have been walking it.’<\/p>\n

Afterwards, the wounded dog ‘collapsed’ to the floor in a bloody heap as a tearful Cammy tried in vain to comfort her beloved pet.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Beau\u2019s leg was hanging off. There was a lot of blood. He leg was completely out of joint and it was just bleeding,’ said Cammy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘I\u00a0was just on the floor with him saying “Beau, you can make it”. But I just knew he was gone.’<\/p>\n
A neighbour took Cammy and Beau to a vet, where the eight-year-old dog was pronounced dead.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cammy said: ‘My daughter was besotted with Beau, she used to let him sleep in her bed every night. She was crying uncontrollably all last night and woke up in hysterics.’ Sienna is pictured holding Beau<\/p>\n
The mother-of-two said she called the Met Police on Wednesday night but claimed no action has been taken so far.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She added: ‘I\u2019m just so traumatised. The whole family is devastated.\u00a0The house feels so empty now.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cammy said she was now terrified to go out the house and claimed the dog was still being walked be its owner.<\/p>\n
She added she was furious that a young girl had been left alone to walk the animal and now feared the Bully could strike again, if urgent action isn’t taken by the authorities.<\/p>\n
‘This dog needs to be put down. In six months old and its already done that to my dog what will it do next?’ she added.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘I\u2019m scared for the child. How can she live in a house with that dog?’<\/p>\n
XL Bullys are not banned in the UK under the Dangerous Dogs Act. However, campaigners are seeking a change in the law following a surge of fatal maulings.<\/p>\n

The breed of animals have been behind the majority of fatal dog attacks in the UK since 2021, having slaughtered 10 out of the 14 people mauled in deadly rampages over the past two years.<\/p>\n
Deaths caused by dog attacks have more than doubled in the past two years, from four in 2021 to a record 10 in 2022.<\/p>\n
Two of four fatal dog attacks in the UK in 2021 involved a Bully XL, with the number increasing to at least six out of 10 last year. Two people have been killed this year by the breed.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, 11-year-old Ana Paun from Birmingham became the latest victim to be brutalised by one of the rampaging hounds, with a video of the attack prompting Home Secretary Suella Braverman to seek ‘urgent advice’ on banning the dogs.<\/p>\n
