Two pit bulls that entered a Carteret backyard on Tuesday, attacking and killing a 3-year-old boy and injuring his mother were not registered with the borough, officials said Wednesday.

The boy’s mother remains hospitalized on Wednesday, Carteret Mayor Daniel J. Reiman said in a statement. Both dogs have been euthanized, a spokesman for the mayor said .

The dogs that got into the family’s fenced backyard on East Laurel Street came from a home on Birch Street, about two blocks away, the mayor said.

In to comment before all the pitbull lovers "it's not the dog, it's the owner" chime in.

Yep.

My pet Bengal Tiger is very sweet.  He plays so nice with my 2-year old niece.

While Pits aren't the most aggressive breed, the problem lies in their "ability" to do a lot of damage.

I've met a lot of very sweet and gentle pits.

But once they get aggressive and get a hold of something, they aren't letting go.

Like everything else in life, stereotypes are there for a reason.

Yes, if a Miniature Poodle attacks, you kick it's ass across the room.  Not so easy with a Pit or a Rott.

I've punted a few ankle biters across the room before.

Didn't feel bad about it one bit.

was the little boy killed twice?
Yes, they resuscitated him and the dog attacked again.
