A woman died from her injuries after her own two dogs mauled her outside an animal hospital in Irving Saturday morning, police say.

Police shot and killed the dogs when they arrived because the pets would not allow authorities to come close to the owner, police say.

Police said the dogs' owner was transported to Parkland Hospital in Dallas, where she later died.

The woman was identified by Irving police Saturday afternoon as 33-year-old Johana Natalie Villafane.

Irving police confirmed the dogs were both pit bulls.

The dogs were in quarantine at O'Connor Animal Hospital to be tested for rabies after they got loose and bit someone earlier in the week, according to the Irving Police Department.

The animal hospital allowed the woman to visit the dogs during the week while her pets were in quarantine, police said.

Police said animal hospital staff told them the dogs attacked the woman when she took them on a walk in an enclosed area behind the building. When someone noticed the woman injured and on the ground, police said the dogs would not allow anyone to go near the her.

The scenario repeated itself when Irving fire and police officials both arrived, which led to police shooting the dogs.

A man approached the police to complain against his neighbour, alleging that the neighbour's dog attacked his six-year-old daughter. He said the dog bit the girl when she was playing outside their house in Ganganagar, leaving her seriously injured. The dog is said to have bitten other people in the area in the past as well. The injured girl has been identified as Ayra Fathima, a resident of Ganganagar in RT Nagar.

Fathima is studying UKG in a private school. According to the complaint filed by her father Mohammed Saleem (40), an architect, his neighbour Jagadish's German Shepherd bit his daughter on March 15, around 3.45 pm, when she was playing with her friends.

"Fathima has a deep injury on her left leg. She was immediately taken to MS Ramaiah Hospital where she underwent a surgery. She has been discharged but is yet to recover from the wound. She is not able to walk, and we have to carry her," Saleem said.

He alleged that his neighbour had not taken permission to keep a dog, and even let it roam about on the streets without any precautionary measures. Saleem said he had not filed a complaint against Jagadish initially as they have been neighbours since 2012 and the latter is said to be a good-natured man, who even visited the hospital to check on Fathima's condition on the day the dog attacked her.

But, Saleem noticed that Jagadish and his family members continued to be negligent about keeping the dog in check. "We decided to file a complaint to bring about some seriousness and to ensure some action was taken," Saleem said. An investigating officer said that Jagadish left the dog at a pet care centre only after the FIR was filed. "We have taken up the case against Jagadish, under IPC section 289 and are investigating," he added.
