Police say that a 41-year-old man died in Wood Green, North London, after being bitten on the neck by his pet dog.
But it has now been claimed that BBC staff were present during the filming of a documentary when the dog fatally attacked its owner.

For the record, I have to stare at my lazy dog several times a day to see if she's even alive and breathing. She couldn't kill a chicken nugget. I tossed her one last week and she wrestled with it for a few minutes before finally making it disappear.
