Lynsey Knight was visiting Jordanhill Park with her children, Anna Knight-Mulhern, four, and Eva Knight-Mulhern, five, on April 6 when she spotted a dog walker step into the play area with a small Westie-type dog. After looking away for a few minutes she saw the dog near her youngest daughter. The animal reportedly barked and growled at the child before biting her arm.

She explained: "For the next few days we were still all
