A woman who kept 11 dogs as pets has died after being found with bite wounds over much of her body at her property in Sydney's north-west.
Police were called to the 61-year-old woman's property on Neich Road, Maraylya, near Windsor, after a relative discovered her lying seriously injured in the backyard.
When ambulance and police officers arrived at 3.20pm, they found her deceased.
She had suffered bite wounds to much of her body, police said.
A crime scene was established and forensics officers examined the area.
A post mortem will be carried out in the coming days to determine the exact cause of death and police will prepare a report for the coroner.
Council rangers have seized the eleven dogs.
A local resident, who declined to give her name, described the woman as very quiet and reserved.
"They had the whole backyard surrounded in some very high Colorbond fencing and she had a number of dogs that no one really saw," she said.
"They were all cross-bred dogs. She didn't actually breed dogs as such."
She said neighbours were horrified by the apparent dog attack.
"It still hasn't hit everyone yet. A lot of people are very upset about it.
"Someone's been killed in their backyard and we didn't know it was going on."

There have been incidents where a person has died and the animals have bitten or eaten part of the body. I'd be interested in the autopsy results to see how she died. If there have been no previous problems with the dogs I can't understand why they would suddenly turn on her.
Howdy, Stranger!
