JAPANESE Akitas can weigh up to 9st.

A seven-year-old girl had her face mauled by an Akita in Notting- hamshire last year.

The terrified youngster had to have more than ten stitches to her face.

Despite some animals being destroyed after a number of attacks, they are not classified as dangerous under the Dangerous Dogs Act.

Jenni Mitchell, solicitor with Neil Hudgell Solicitors who handled Mr Brady's claim, said: "This traumatic experience quite simply should not have happened to Mr Brady, who was going about his day-to-day job of delivering parcels. The injuries he suffered have had an immense impact.

"I hope this compens- ation will mitigate some of the pain and suffer- ing he has endured."
