Villa fan Ian Price was attacked by two dogs outside a house in Main Street in the village on the Lichfield-Walsall boundary shortly after 3pm on September 14 last year.
Accused owner James Trimble-Pettit, aged 31, of Fradley, appeared at Stafford Crown Court today for a plea and direction hearing.
He pleaded not guilty to one charge of being the owner of a dog dangerously out of control in relation to a female American XL bully style dog called 'Via'.
In the aftermath of the attack, one of the dogs had died when it was being restrained and the other died after being injected by a vet.
