Big Brother star Aisleyne Horgan Wallace has blamed the heatwave after being attacked by an XL Bully dog.

The former reality star said the dog ‘loved her’ but suddenly turned, biting her until ‘you could see the bone’ she added in a worrying post.

Aislyene, 47, was rushed to A&E for treatment but said she had been scarred for life by the attack. After sharing her ordeal, Aislyene shared the response from one of her followers: “My friend’s daughter was killed about 10 weeks ago by their loving family dog. A whippet. He got her neck and that was it. Wishing you a speedy recovery.”

“This is devastating,” responded Aislyene. “It’s not always about the breed… I think this heat is really dangerous please take heed. I’m so lucky in this instance… I pray this family can heal.”

On Sunday, the star posted a photo with the XL Bully and wrote: “The few mins before he bit me Everyone knows I’m a dog mummy. I love dogs.

“This dog loved me, then for a split second for no reason he didn’t… Please please please understand how to raise and how these babies can switch. I’m in agony and scarred for life,” she added.

After arriving in A&E, Aisleyne posted a photo beside her friend, and wrote: “I’ve been bitten by an XL BULLY!!!!! You can see my f bone thank GOD for my girl.’

She later explained that the injury ‘wasn’t to her neck or face’ and highlighted the importance of safety around big dogs.

It read: “Thankful it wasn’t my neck or face… Sad I’m scarred for life. Glad it wasn’t a child and it was me… So conflicted. Dogs are pack animals they need you to be their leader. It makes them feel safe to know you are in control.

“If you let them do mad behaviour they will eventually execute that. Big dogs are so powerful… protect your kids it ain’t a joke.”

Anyone that owns an XL Bully in the UK must have a valid Certificate of Exemption. The legal document permits someone to legally keep a dog that is otherwise prohibited under UK law, provided they meet certain criteria.
