Four dogs attack woman and rescuer in Hakaru

A woman in Hakaru, north of Auckland, was attacked by four dogs while painting her house. The dogs broke through her fence, causing severe injuries to her and a neighbor who tried to help. Both victims sustained puncture wounds and face a long recovery. Local residents have previously raised concerns about roaming dogs, but animal control has not taken significant action. The woman managed to push the dogs away and reached her deck, where she attempted to stop the bleeding with towels.
