A Rottweiler has helped rescue a two-year-old South African boy who was being attacked by a pit bull terrier.

The pit bull mauled Tshepang Taeli as he was walking with his grandmother in Oakdene, south of Johannesburg.

Even though residents came to the boy's rescue and tried to kick and beat the dog, it would not let go of the child and dragged it down the road. One of the neighbours, Ricky Veludo, came to help and then went to fetch his dog, Blade: "He fought the other dog to free the child."

The boy was then rushed to hospital where he is recovering from bites to his face, legs and stomach. "I have never felt so much pain in my life. The dog was attacking him and I was trying to release him and I could not," the boy's grandmother stated.
