In serious condition an 8-year-old boy is trying to recover at a Cleveland hospital after his arm was mauled by a pit bull. “He’s in serious condition, but he’ll survive,” said Herb de la Porte, LifeCare spokesman. The animal was quarantined Wednesday evening. The dog’s owner said it had all its shots and proper records. News of the dog attack frustrated Lorain Animal Control Officer Mike Mattei, who on Wednesday announced plans to start requiring vicious dog owners to register their animals and ensure the creatures receive proper vaccinations
