Neighbors said this is not the first time they have had a problem with these dogs and are fed up with the dogs "terrorizing" the neighborhood.
Neighbors said they are concerned because a school is across the street and they fear for their children's safety.
"We also have our school children right across the street. Where it could be a safety issue," said Borrejo.
Animal services told KFOX14 when they responded to the call, the fire department and the dog sitter had the situation under control.
Animal control said the dog sitter was taking the injured dogs to a vet.
"I hope something is done so that we don't go through the problems that Las Cruces have been going through with their dogs," said Borrejo.
The statue requires owners of any breed deemed potentially dangerous to have a permit.
It does not ban pit bulls, like some cities in the U.S., but animal experts say its not the breed that is the problem.
"Innately pit bulls are not bad aggressive animals. People who own pit bulls do however have the responsibility to ensure that those animals are properly socialized and well trained. And if they do have aggression issues, that they are properly confined," said Betty Hoover, executive director of the El Paso Humane Society.
In fact, the El Paso Humane Society mascot, Shelby, is part pit bull. Shelby meets and greets people at the humane society every day.
"She is the perfect model for a well-behaved pit bull," said Hoover.
Neighbors agree its not necessarily the dog's fault.
"We know its not the dog, we are dog lovers," said Borrejo.
But Borrejo added in this case, the history of these dogs violent behavior has the neighborhood very concerned and hoping something can be done to protect residents.
