The horses were outside in the 900 block of Wieker Road at 2:35 p.m. Tuesday when the dogs, which live nearby and were running loose, clamped onto their noses, said Lt. Jeffrey Silverman, a county police spokesman. The horses suffered minor facial injuries.
A son of the horses' owner recorded the mauling on his cell phone and handed it over to Animal Control, Silverman said. The dogs are being held at the Millersville headquarters of Animal Control pending results of its investigation.
No charges have been filed.
