The SPCA were notified by police of an alleged attack by two dogs while a woman was walking her dog.

BC SPCA is investigating after a woman and her dog were allegedly attacked and bitten by two other dogs in Seafair last week.

Richmond RCMP were called to the 9300 block of Piermond Road, close to Dixon elementary, last Saturday afternoon for the incident.

According to the woman who made the police complaint, she was walking her dog when two other dogs approached and started attacking her dog.

At least three people reportedly suffered dog bites while attempting to separate the dogs, according to Richmond RCMP.

The owners of the two dogs then arrived and were able to take their dogs back inside their home.

The owners of the two other dogs told police their dogs were in their yard and, unbeknownst to them, had escaped.

The owners said they heard a commotion outside and came out to see what was happening, at which time, they discovered their dogs had escaped.

Richmond RCMP have reported the incident to the BC SPCA and City of Richmond’s bylaw department.

This investigation remains active and ongoing.
