Betty and Robert Naglee, who own a home on Liars Lair Road, invited their son and daughter-in-law, along with their daughter-in-law's family, to spend the weekend. Their son, James Naglee and his wife, Michelle, who live in Oregon City, brought their 11-month-old son, Michael.

The first grandchild in the Naglee family, Michael was adored by his grandparents.

"He's a darling, darling little boy," said Leone Coleman, Betty Naglee's sister, who lives in Garibaldi.

James and Michelle also brought along their 5-year-old, 135-pound American bulldog Duncan that was rescued from a shelter four years ago.

On Sunday afternoon, James and Michelle Naglee were off somewhere, leaving the two sets of grandparents and an uncle in the home. Louisa Farmer, Michael's maternal grandmother, was sitting on a couch in the living room, holding the boy, who started squirming. He wanted down, so she put him on the floor.

The boy ran across the room to Duncan, who was resting about seven feet away, according to Michael Farmer, the boy's maternal grandfather. The dog knocked the boy down and then attacked, Farmer said.

The grandfathers and an uncle tried to pull the dog off, someone called 9-1-1 and sheriff's deputies, firefighters and ambulances converged on the dead-end street. Medics whisked the boy to Tillamook County General Hospital but it was too late.

He was pronounced dead, just three days before his first birthday on Wednesday.
