Police are investigating after an 81-year-old woman and her dog were injured in an attack by another dog.
The woman and her pet were walking close to the junction of Beeches Road and Beeches Avenue in Clydebank when the attack happened at about 3pm on Thursday September 19.
A larger dog, described as being light and dark brown in colour, approached and attacked the smaller dog.

She was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow to be treated and her pet needed treatment from a vet.
The larger dog and its owner left the area following the incident, walking in the direction of Beeches Avenue and Carleith Avenue in the West Dunbartonshire town.
