Erin has already had vascular and plastic surgery. The road to recovery is going to be a long stretch for this little girl, and my thoughts and prayers continue to be with her and her family.
There is no concrete information yet about whether the dogs had a previous history of attacks, or whether Vaughn has been cited before for any attacks involving his dogs. However, his neighbors say that the dogs seemed very aggressive. Residents in the area were always fearful of an attack. Apparently, the dogs had been involved in attacks on a neighbor's pet cat, as well as on another person.
