A Utah boy lost his right hand after it was reportedly bitten off by a neighbor’s dog over the weekend, according to reports.

The 4-year-old reached underneath a fence to try and pet the dog, which was described in reports as a husky. The dog then attacked the boy, whose name was not released, Layton City Police PIO Jason Cook told People magazine.
