Owner of dogs that mauled two women in Melbourne says she’s ‘heartbroken’

The owner of a pack of dogs that mauled two women in Melbourne's north-west says she's heartbroken by the attacks.

The cross-breeds allegedly set upon a young mum pushing a baby in a pram yesterday afternoon on Withers Close in Sunbury.

The day before, a 71-year-old was allegedly mauled by the same animals just 400 metres away.

"It's broken my heart," the dog's owner told 9News.

"Broken my heart. And I'm humiliated. I'm embarassed," she said.

"I love my dogs. I'm sorry, they were my family."

Both women are now in a stable condition.

Neighbours say they have been complaining to the local council about the dogs for months.

Hume City Council didn't respond to 9News questions today.
