To the Editor:

My dog was attacked by a pit bull on North Second Street in Surf City midday on Memorial Day. I was walking him on a leash when a dog came running from 2 North Second St. The owner was putting her dog in the car unleashed when it ran to my dog and grabbed him by the throat. I screamed and was knocked down.

The man who owns the house was hosting the dog and its owner. The man had to lay on top of the dog to separate him from my dog. The police were called and a summons was issued to the dog owner.
