The dog approached the woman and when she went to pet it, she was bitten on the leg.

The dog is described as a medium sized, black, Labrador Retriever. It was not wearing a collar.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Lambton Public Health. (519-383-8331 ext. 3581 or toll free at 1-800-667-1839)
