       It's understood the tot was the youngest victim when their household pet launched into a terrifying frenzy.

       Cops say a girl, 15, was also taken to hospital over that weekend after her XL Bully attacked her.

       It is not clear what state she is in.

       Two other youngsters also suffered after their dog mauled them - although it is not known what their breed is.

       South Yorkshire Police have since warned parents of the risk XL Bully's pose.

       A spokesperson said: "Nationally, and within South Yorkshire, we are seeing an increase in dangerous dog incidents and the severity of the risk they pose to members of the public.

       "Sadly, last weekend we have seen innocent children at the receiving end of these dogs’ violent capabilities.

       "One incident, which hospitalised a 15-year-old girl, involved an XL Bully that has been reported to have allegedly showed aggression previously and has been left unreported, without intervention.

       "We are not only urging parents to think about their own dogs and their children’s behaviour around them, but to also report concerns you may have around dogs in the community, especially where vulnerable people live.

       "We are not here to seize family pets, but we will intervene if the dog poses a risk and work alongside the owners, with partners and charities, to ensure the dog’s behaviour is addressed, and our recommendations are followed."

       The force said they receive between 140 and 185 calls every month about out of control dogs causing injury or panic.

       It comes after a man died on Friday after he was attacked by two XL Bully's.

       The mauling happened just yards away from a school in Stonall, Staffordshire, on Thursday.

       The Sun understands that the dogs escaped from a neighbour's house just as St Peter's Primary Academy was breaking out for the day.

       And on Wednesday, a boy, 10, was attacked as he played football outside his house.

       The youngster was on his family's front drive in Walsall when the beast came out of nowhere and leapt on him.
