FORT LAUDERDALE (CBS4) ― A Fort Lauderdale woman and her small terrier are recovering after a vicious attack by two pit bulls in her Fort Lauderdale neighborhood.

Kailen Gonzalez and her brother Carlos were walking their three small dogs Wednesday night in their Victoria Park neighborhood when two pit bulls charged out of their backyard.

The dogs attacked Kailen and two of the dogs. Her Jack Russell Terrier named Milo was injured, a Silky Terrier named Bella was killed and Kailen was bitten in the face while she tried to protect the dogs. Carlos and a third dog were not hurt.

Broward County animal control officials removed the pit bulls from the home and cited the owner.

Neighbors say they're relieved because they had been living in fear of the pit bulls because they had been roaming the streets unleashed.
