A Phoenix toddler is hospitalized in critical condition after being mauled by his grandmother's dogs.

Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy Thompson says the 18-month-old boy was playing with five Rottweilers by himself on Monday afternoon when he was attacked by at least two of the dogs. He was bitten on the head and chest at least 10 times and lost a large amount of blood.

Thompson says the boy's parents were helping to remodel the grandmother's house and did not notice the boy had sneaked outside. Two of the dogs will be euthanized.
