Nan, 89, scared to leave her house after dog 'ripped her leg open'

A nan said she will never be the same after she was attacked by a dog outside her home.

On Wednesday, May, 17 Agnes O'Hare claims she was attacked by a neighbour's dog after she went to the house, on Ash Vale in Wavertree, to deliver some post. However when the door was opened she claims the neighbour's dog ran out and started to maul her leg.

Agnes, aged 89, was unable to get the dog off her leg and a passerby had to intervene and "kick it the face" to stop the attack. Her daughter Sharon Edwards has said her mum, who used to be mobile, is now bedbound and has to use a wheelchair after the dog "ripped her leg" open.
