Hillsborough County Animal Control currently has the dog. Eddy Durkin with Tampa Police said: 'When they Tasered the dog, it was still pulling away and was able to release the prongs from the Taser'
Brenda Guerrero, 52, from Tampa, Florida, was in the backyard trying to put the pit bull mix, named Scarface, into a festive outfit when he attacked her, biting her on the arm.
Her husband Ismael Guerrero, 46, tried to pull the dog off his wife but then the animal started to attack him, reported WTSP.
After the couple's son Antoine Harris, 22, stabbed the dog in the neck and head, all three were able to escape back into the house.
Color clash? The dog minus sweater
Police shot the pit bull with a tranquilizer dart - at which point it managed to get into the house where there were two young children.
Police then used a bean bag gun and Taser to subdue the dog.
'Officers responding said the dog was pretty aggressive,' Eddy Durkin with Tampa Police said to WFTS.
'When they Tasered the dog, it was still pulling away and was able to release the prongs from the Taser.'
Both Guerreros were taken to hospital for their injuries and Brenda Guerrero's injuries are considered serious, but not life-threatening.
The dog is currently in the custody of animal control.
How many parents have tried to dress there children in clothes they don't like and as a result come into conflict.
Unfortunately the dog was the loser, I wonder if he will be euthanized.
