A woman has been rushed to hospital with serious injuries to her face after she was mauled by her dog in Sydney’s inner west.
The 47-year-old was attacked by her dog, believed to be a Saint Bernard-cross, at her home on Edith St, Leichhardt about 12.20am on Wednesday morning.
She was in a serious condition, with significant facial injuries and a deep gash on her arm.
‘The incident has been reported to the local council, who have commenced an investigation into the circumstances of the incident,’ NSW Police said.
Paramedics were seen tending to the blood-covered woman at the scene before she was put in the back of an ambulance.
They bandaged her arm and covered the lower part of her face with a towel.
