I'm so glad Molly seems to be alright. Bull dogs do have powerful jaws. I would take her to the vet. There are other things besides bones that can break in that kind of attack.
In this country you are supposed to report a dog attack. In my area dogs are "given" one bite and after that the dog can be removed if it attacks again. It seems like a backward policy. Anyway, report the attack to the police. They should keep a record of the attack so if that dog does by some means get loose again and hurts someone something can be done about it because there is a record of it's aggression.
I don't think there is much you could have done to prevent the attack but it is a good idea to keep your dog close to your side in case of some unexpected event. I have to keep Gracie close due to the presence of wild animals at certain times of day. Thankfully I have only been attacked by a domestic dog. I know how frightening the experience is.
Kisses and love to Molly. You might want to give her a bath to get rid of the smell of the other dog.
