A dog which was involved in a fatal attack on a three-year-old boy at a farm in Rochdale will be destroyed, a judge has ruled.

Daniel Twigg suffered horrific injuries following the 'appalling tragedy' at Carr Farm, in Milnrow , Rochdale , on May 15, 2022.

His parents Joanne Bedford, 37, and Mark Twigg, 43, had moved onto the farm with their children and were looking after the dogs while their owner was on remand in prison.

Both signed a contract, agreeing to care for the eight or nine 'untrained guard dogs', which included Cane Corso, American Bulldog and a Boerboel breeds. Signs were in place warning visitors about the dogs, including 'do not exit your vehicle'; 'dogs are loose'; and 'beware of the dogs they bite'.
