One person has been hospitalised following what’s been described as a horrific dog attack in South East Clare.
Two people were out jogging on land near Sixmilebridge yesterday evening, when they were set upon by two Sheep Dogs.
Emergency services were alerted and Gardaí, as well as Clare’s County Dog Warden were dispatched to the scene.
The dogs were brought under control a short time later and have been surrendered to the Dog Warden, with a view to being destroyed.
It’s understood a woman in her twenties has been taken to University Hospital Limerick for treatment for what’s been described as serious injuries.
Clare’s County Dog Warden, Frankie Coote says the person’s injuries are the worst he’s ever seen from this particular breed of dog.
