A dog was stabbed and had his throat slashed in a horrific attack branded 'attempted murder.' Rottweiler Rocky was rushed into surgery after the savage attack where vets had to remove part of his jaw, Lancashire Live reports.

The seven-year-old pooch is one of two pets that were attacked and left fighting for their lives at the same stables in north Lancashire.

Owner Anji Sanderson, 56, found her beloved pet wandering around the yard with stab wounds in his chest, thigh and side and a four-inch slash to his throat.

Police are now investigating the area but no arrests have been made. Anji, who described Rocky as a trusting gentle giant, feared he would not pull through and now worries for her own safety.
