A four-year-old girl was rushed to hospital after being attacked by an XL Bully on a river footpath.
The ordeal happened on the River Irwell path in Kersal between 2pm and 3pm on Saturday, July 19.
Greater Manchester Police are now urging any witnesses to come forward to determine the cause of the attack.
It comes as a new YouGov poll revealed the majority of Britons want stricter laws enforced on the XL Bully breed - with just five percent thinking they should be allowed as pets without a licence.
Others have called for the reintroduction of dog licences in the UK for all breeds, with more than half (54 per cent) believing this should be mandatory.
