PLYMOUTH, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut woman recovering in the hospital after being attacked by four of her own large French mastiffs says she doesn’t blame the dogs.

Patricia Collins told the Republican American in a phone interview Wednesday from her room at Yale New Haven Hospital she doesn’t know what triggered the attack but reiterated that it wasn’t the dogs’ fault. She’s scheduled for surgery Thursday to treat injuries to her arm and abdomen.
