BEXAR COUNTY, Texas – Two children were attacked by two family dogs Monday in northeast Bexar County, according to the sheriff’s office.

Sheriff’s deputies responded to the dog attack around 4:30 p.m. at a home in the 8100 block of Seldon Trail, a preliminary report said.

A mother reported that her two children were being attacked by her dogs.

As one family dog attacked a young boy, the report said his brother attempted to help pull the dog off of him.

Deputies stated that another family dog attacked the second brother.

The brothers were taken to a local hospital to treat their injuries to the face and head, BCSO said. They suffered non-life-threatening injuries and are recovering.

The two dogs involved in the incident have since been taken into custody, deputies said.
