EMS says the children received minor injuries, and police say the dog did not belong to their family.Two small dogs were also killed in separate attacks over the weekend involving pit bulls. Animal Services manager Alvin Murray says he's not as concerned about the breeds as he is about the owners."Our message is that aggression from animals will not be tolerated," he said. "And we will take swift action and we will charge people and they will end up in court."2 small dogs killed on weekendMurray says the pit bull from Sunday's Skyview Ranch attack has been seized and is now being assessed.
