Family Pet Chihuahua New Victim Of Urban Fox Attack

The recent fox attack of two baby twins sent shock waves through the homes of people up and down the UK. Now a 2 year old Chihuahua called Princess has been the latest victim of the urban fox.

Toby Khanna, a full-time father from Poole, Dorset had already reported recent sightings of the fox in his garden to the local council several weeks before the incident happened. They told him that they did not deal with foxes and needed to contact the RSPCA.

Mr Khanna had just returned from taking his oldest child to school when he let Princess into the garden. The Daily Mail reports that Princess was snapped up by a large fox who tried to flee the garden with Princess in his jaws.

His young children witnessed the attack and Mr Khanna quickly tried to chase after the fox. He climbed over a 4 foot fence and managed to prize Princess from the fox’s jaws – she was already dead.

In The Daily Mail, Mr Khanna said ‘We heard this yelp and suddenly the dog was gone – I couldn’t believe how quickly it happened. I ran after it into my neighbour’s garden, and managed to grab Princess by the legs. After a bit of a tug, the fox let go and I took Princess back into our garden. She was totally lifeless. It had broken her neck.’

He added: ‘It was heartbreaking to see and the children were obviously very upset.’
