Actually @vertika and others. Its not necessary that we change the option A.
We can also change option C.
"a mad dog suddenly attacked from behind" or "a mad dog suddenly attacked from me behind"
According to what I have read, The sentence should follow how its started. So we can change the rest of the sentence based on the first sentence.
Tell me if am wrong.

A mad dog attacked him from back. Why can't we use BACK?

Walking is a good exercise. Here subject is walking. Similarly in the given question subject is walking. There is no use to add another subject he. So can anyone explain it?

"In the afternoon" or "on the afternoon".

In the afternoon is more appropriate.

Shouldn't we write "While he was walking slowly in the park in a quiet summer afternoon a mad dog suddenly attacked him from behind"?

It should be in a quiet summer afternoon.

'In a quite summer afternoon' sounds much appropriate.

If no subject is mentioned before 'while', then 'mad dog' will become the subject for the 1st sentence which totally which will change the sense of sentence.
