The pack of 7 small, mixed Dachshunds, 6 of which were under 1 year old and the packs leader, suspected to be the mother of the pups was just over 3 years old attacked Tracy Garcia outside of her home on May 10th.
Police responded but by the time they arrived the Mrs Garcia had already been grievously wounded in the savage attack.
The 52-year-old woman tragically died from injuries sustained in hospital later the same day.
The dogs are believed to have belonged to the woman’s neighbour, one of them was shot and killed at the scene while the rest were euthanised later that day.
Authorities remarked on the unusualness of the tragic case as such small and generally non-aggressive dogs are almost unheard of in fatal attack cases.
