The friend said: “Baby Elon was her ray of hope amid the tragedy.”Abigail, 27, and the boy’s dad, Stephen Joynes, 35, have been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter in connection with the lad’s death. Elon’s father and brother tried to save the tot after the huge dog apparently ran inside after escaping from a pen in the back garden, a relative has said. The chow-chow cross named Teddy grabbed the baby, who weighed less than 7lb, in its jaws, the relative said. He added Abigail was upstairs and that the dog’s wooden pen might not have been high enough. She loves dogs and would never have a dog around the kids if she thought they were dangerous.
