This is the shocking moment a woman was mauled by a ferocious mutt which bit her hand as it tried to attack her pet dog.
Terrified Sue Ghizdeanu was walking her Staffordshire Bull Terrier Tyson down the street when the dog - which is the same breed - came charging towards them.
It pounced on Tyson as Mrs Ghizdeanu tried to separate the pair, before she is savagely attacked by the vicious dog, which was off its lead.
The 52-year-old to undergo an emergency operation, needed five stitches to her hand, and will require further hospital check-ups.
