CANADA -- A 26-year-old woman is in a Calgary hospital after being attacked by a pair of pit bulls early Saturday morning.
The victim was staying at a friend's home in Sundre, when the animals became violent.
The woman was bitten on her arms and face.
Adam Loria with EMS says they were called to Sundre around 2:00 a.m. to deal with the incident.
"We classified her as in critical, life-threatening condition and immediately transported her to the local hospital in Sundre," say Loria.
She was then flown to Foothills Hospital by STARS Air Ambulance with possible life-threatening wounds, but has since improved.
There are reports this is not the first time the animals have been hostile.
When officers arrived, they couldn't corral the two aggressive animals and as a result, one of the dogs had to be put down on-site.
The other will be held to check for rabies and a dangerous dog hearing will be held.
