Dog attack on member of our Association

On Sunday 15th October, a female member of our Association was attacked by a husky dog on footpath V35.  This right of way leaves the Sapcote Road and crosses a camp site before entering Freeholt wood at grid reference SP462939.

Using her mobile phone to contact emergency services an ambulance arrived and she was taken to hospital.  Two pints of blood had been lost from a flesh wound on her left calf.

The police attended hospital and took details of the attack.  The police helicopter assisted in the search for the dog.  No trace of the dog was found on the camp site or in the surrounding area.

Best wishes are extended to our member and for a full recovery from this unfortunate and distressing incident.
