The bulldog was shot dead along with two other dogs after savagely attacking a woman who had eaten her own puppies days earlier, its owner admitted to Daily Mail Australia.
The three crazed animals attempted to eat Jordan Garrett alive after the attack at a home in Dandenong, southeast of Melbourne, shortly before 10am on Thursday.
Police had to open fire on the dogs as they tore apart Ms Garrett, shooting two dogs five times and another three times before the carnage stopped.
Now the owner, whom Daily Mail Australia calls Jenny, has revealed how her two pets, male bulldog Johnson Snookie and pit bull terrier LaLa, had been raised with five young children.
Still dressed in her blood-soaked T-shirt from the previous day’s attack, she explained that her ex-partner’s bulldog, Shady, was the third dog killed by police.
The victim was her ex-partner’s new girlfriend, Jenny said.
The police officers had tried to stop the attack using capsicum spray, but they continued to attack Ms. Garrett and had to shoot her dead.
Video captured the gruesome attack, but the images are too disturbing to publish.

Speaking in the front garden of the property where the dogs were killed, Jenny said she had just returned from the local veterinary clinic where she said goodbye to her beloved pets, whom she had placed together in a final embrace before the cremation.
Jenny had left her two dogs in the care of her ex-boyfriend, whose partner of just four months was mauled by the animals.
The mother of five said she had raised Sookie and LaLa from puppies. Sookie was three years old while LaLa was about to turn two.
“I’ve had them since they were six weeks old,” she said. ‘They were beautiful dogs.
‘Look at me, I’m covered in their blood. I just went to the vet to say my last goodbye.
Police left the dogs’ bullet-riddled bodies in the backyard after they were shot to death.
Jenny claimed the dogs’ drastic change in personality had been caused by outside influences brought on by recent changes at her ex-boyfriend’s property on Ross Street, where the attack took place.
He said he had dumped the body of the third dog in the attack, belonging to his ex-partner.
“I put that dog in the dumpster,” he said. ‘They brought a truck and I picked up that dog and put him in it.
“I thought they came in a vehicle, but it was a tough garbage truck.”
Jenny, who does not live at the property where the attack occurred, said she had broken up with her boyfriend about a year ago.
“Sookie and Lala were our dogs and then I left him and he got another one,” Jenny said.
The bodies of the murdered dogs were visible in the backyard.

Shady had recently given birth to four puppies, but the puppies’ father, Sookie, had eaten a couple.
“Sook ate a couple,” Jenny said. ‘Because they don’t separate them… it’s male, that’s what they do.’
The devastated dog owner said she believed the victim had been trying to get her dogs to like her.
“And she went out there,” Jenny said. “You can’t go out because Sookie kept biting people.”
Jenny dismissed reports that her dogs had been agitated by a previous visit from police, who had arrested a young man at the property on an outstanding warrant.
‘I heard that on the news too. “I heard it was their dogs,” he said. “It was my damn dogs that got shot. Five bullets in each.
Police fired a total of 19 shots amid the chaos, 13 of which hit their targets, Jenny said.

A juvenile had previously been arrested at the property for an unrelated warrant matter.
Police were faced with terrifying scenes upon entering the property’s backyard.
Despite LaLa’s role in the attack, Jenny insisted that her pit bull had been a kind soul when in her care.
‘Don’t put ‘pitbull this, pitbull that’ in the media because that dog, I tell you, was a beautiful dog. “She was beautiful,” Jenny said.
She insisted that she had treated her dogs well while in her care.
“I’m not a drug addict,” she added. “I probably look like one now because I haven’t slept and I’m covered in blood.”
Garrett remains in a critical condition in Dandenong Hospital and police are investigating.
It has now emerged that Ms Garrett had been attacked by one of the animals earlier in the week, according to a neighbor who said the dogs had been a concern for some time.
“I was home sick from work and I heard screaming and banging,” the neighbor said. The age.
“Then the police came and the shooting started.”
It comes as shocking CCTV footage has emerged of an attack allegedly involving one of the animals in July.
The images, published by the newspaper, show a large white and brown dog attacking a much smaller Shiba Inu, who screams and screams in pain.
The Shiba Inu’s owner screams and falls to the ground during the attack before a bystander runs up and begins kicking and punching the larger dog in an attempt to stop it.
The man yells “let go” and “don’t stop” repeatedly as he tries to push the dog away.
Greater Dandenong Council said it had received multiple complaints about dogs at the property and was prosecuting a resident of the home, who is not the victim, over the July attack.
The matter is due to go to court in November.
Several dogs remained inside the Dandenong home on Friday.
A neighbor who lives on the same street said there were five dogs in total on the government housing property.
It is understood that the woman lives in the house with several other people.
“I was walking home and there was a lot of screaming and yelling,” the neighbor told Daily Mail Australia.
“Then the police came and shots were heard. I saw how they put the lady into the ambulance and she was very bad.’
