A Scots service dog was rushed to the vet for treatment after being brutally attacked by another dog
.
History student Erin said: “We were walking along West Richmond Street on the way to get some dinner and she stopped suddenly, which isn’t like her. “I told them I was phoning the police and once they heard me talking to the handler they started walking away. I wasn’t sure if they were just trying to get to a quieter area and get their dog to calm down, so I followed them to Nicolson Square Gardens.
Erin, who is from America, has now been left with a bill of around £120 and fears the cost could rise. Erin relies on Reece to help her everyday and now fears the dog's confidence will be knocked by the incident.
