The woman was treated at the scene for dog bites to her chest, arms and legs.
She suffered significant blood loss and was taken to Liverpool Hospital in a serious, but stable condition.
“(There) was blood everywhere. It looked like a murder scene,” one witness said.
“It was something that no one should ever see in their lives.”
Another witness said he heard “a lot of loud screaming and crying”.
