Morgan Wallen's son had to be rushed to hospital after suffering a bit to the face by a dog.
The two year old was immediately taken to the emergency room following the incident over the weekend.
Morgan, who appeared on season six of The Voice USA, shares young Indigo with his ex-fiancee KT Smith, who revealed the horror moments in a social media post.
She confirmed their son had to have several stitches to the facial wound. In a series of emotional uploads on Instagram, KT described the scary ordeal, which involved KT's own pet.
She started: "Yesterday, he bit Indigo in the face and [Indigo] had to have stitches … we spent yesterday morning at the emergency room."

KT was emotional as she revealed the incident (Instagram)A tearful KT told her fans she was not prepared to let her dog go following the attack and asked her followers for advice and suggestions.
She continued: "Since then, we have been looking for options and I just couldn’t bring myself to what everyone else says and what you’re supposed to do, apparently … what the world tells you to do is to put the dog down because they are aggressive.
KT claimed that Legend had previously dealt with traumatic situations and believes this could have been partially to blame for the dog's latest actions.
She refused to take the animal to a kill shelter and said all other shelters had no space for her pet.

KT went on to share a number of abusive posts she'd received following her decision to re-home the animal.
