An 11-month-old pit bull has been seized by the City of Calgary’s Community Standards department after a woman was taken to hospital Wednesday with multiple dog bites.
EMS said the call came in around 8:10 a.m. for reports of a possible animal bite in the 80-block of Abergale Close N.E.
A spokesperson with the city said the woman was walking down a back alley when the dog escaped from its yard and attacked her.
The 32-year-old woman was transported to the hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries after being bitten several times, police said.
