Freddy was left with a 3cm hole in his right arm after Pablo attacked him, just hours after the dog wounded his nan Jackiey, 68, for the second time last week. Just days prior, on July 16, neighbours had raised the alarm after hearing Jackiey’s screams after she was attacked by the crossbreed. A friend said: “Freddy had seven days to make a case to save Pablo from death and find him somewhere to stay. “He has done that and he has now been assured that the dog won’t be destroyed. “What happened was shocking and very sad, but Freddy knows Pablo isn’t a bad dog. “He was told a urine infection could have altered his behaviour, and he has not been violent before. “For now, Freddy has arranged to have Pablo taken by a specialist trainer who will care for him and get him back to his best before they work out what to do next. “Freddy is absolutely elated.” Last Sunday Freddy made an emotional plea in The Sun On Sunday and admitted he was fearing for Pablo’s life after the police seized him after the attack. The incident happened last week, with Freddy leaving his dad Jeff’s home in Essex to get to Bermondsey to support Jackiey, who had dialled 999 saying Pablo had attacked her. Freddy went to take the dog away from Jackiey’s but it then turned on him in the street. Freddy said of the incident: “I’ve taken him out of the house. I’ve calmed him down. I’m going: ‘Sorry boy I know it’s been so long. I love you. I’ve missed you.’ “I’m scratching his back, but then he hooked on to my arm. The dog was hanging off me. “I couldn’t feel anything in my right arm. But then I saw blood coming out of my tracksuit.” He went on to receive treatment at the Royal London Hospital, Whitechapel. Freddy said: “I have never seen him as my dog — he’s like my son.” Comment now
