A 33-year-old Hong Kong woman, the licence holder of a pet training facility, has been found dead after being attacked by a dog at her facility, according to police. On Thursday afternoon, CCTV footage showed her trying to return a one-year-old mongrel to its cage when the one-metre tall dog attacked her for about a minute, causing wounds on her head, neck, lower jaw, and both arms.
The dog, possibly mixed breed with pit bull ancestry, was wandering around her body when officers and paramedics arrived. No intruders were present at the scene. A postmortem examination will be conducted to determine the exact cause of death. The facility, which began business in January, also serves as a shelter for stray dogs.
The incident highlights concerns over the management of large dogs in Hong Kong following a recent fatal attack.
