Police are calling for the public’s help after a woman, Sarah Blaylock was attacked by two dogs and left with horrific injuries.
Gatekeepers News reports that the 56-year-old is still struggling to walk two months after the incident and at one point faced the prospect of plastic surgery.
According to reports, her leg wounds were so bad they were likened to injuries inflicted by garden machinery.
The attack was so quick and brutal that Blaylock still cannot recall some details of it.
She said of the incident in Rossett, Wrexham, on Sunday, July 24, “I must have blocked it out.”
North Wales Police has since secured details of the dogs that may have been involved and are trying to trace a dark-coloured Vauxhall Insignia estate that might have been driven by their owners.
According to reports, the dogs were both ‘Mastiff types’, one grey, the other brindle coloured.
At the time of the attack, at about 8.35pm, Blaylock was out walking her own dog, a Springer spaniel called Wilf.
As she passed Rossett business park along a country lane, she heard a scream and turned to see two dogs charging at her.
Blaylock said, “It all happened so quickly. I imagine the woman screamed because the dogs had got loose and were running at me. Later, the police told me I shouldn’t have run, but that was my instinct, and looking back now, I wish I hadn’t.
“The dogs seemed to circle us. I stopped running when I saw one had pinned Wilf on his back. I hadn’t realised but the other had gone behind me. It attacked me but I can’t actually remember being bitten.”
