It happened in Dun Laoghaire this afternoon.
A woman has been hospitalised with serious injuries after being mauled by two dogs on the southside.
At around 1pm today, emergency services rushed to the scene – including the Armed Support Unit.
A woman was found at an apartment in Dun Laoghaire – with what’s described as “serious injuries”.
She’s being treated at St. Vincent’s.
Gardaí say they’ve launched an investigation and the dogs have been seized.
