The incident in Northolt, west London, comes amid concerns about dog attacks after Natasha Johnston was mauled to death in Caterham, Surrey, and a four-year-old girl was killed in a back garden in Milton Keynes.
Footage of the attack in Northolt on 26 January was shared online and showed what looked like a pit bull clinging to the woman's arm as two men battled to release her.
"When I looked at my arm, I felt like I was looking at minced meat. Obviously that was where the dog had been chewing it, biting it and gnawing it. The attack broke both bones in the woman's forearm. She has undergone three operations so far and said she will have to go through several more.The Metropolitan Police said officers were called at 10.54pm on 26 January after the woman was attacked by the dog.
