The Waterford Police Department is looking for the owner of two large dogs that allegedly attacked a smaller dog and then took off.

On Wednesday, at around 4 p.m., a man and his small dog were outside on their property at 120 Bloomingdale Road, which is next to The Williams School's athletic fields, according to the Waterford Police Department. Then, an SUV pulled into a parking lot of the athletic fields, and two large dogs - a tan pit bull and a tan labradoodle - ran out and attacked the small dog in its own yard, according to police.

The male owner was injured while attempting to rescue his small dog from the attack, according to police. The owner of the two larger dogs corralled her dogs and then left in a tan or white SUV, according to police.
