At around midday on Saturday, September 3, it is reported that a 25-year-old woman was walking her dog along Hall Flat Lane in Balby, when another dog – believed to be a German Shepherd-type breed – ran towards them from the other side of the road.

The German Shepherd-type dog is then believed to have bitten the victim’s dog numerous times, causing serious injuries that have required vet treatment.
