The woman was taken to the hospital and is home recovering after undergoing two surgeries, one on each of her arms.<\/p>\n<p>33-year-old Janae Presutto-Canon says around noon Wednesday, she heard her dog, Zeus, a 16-month-old Cane Corso yelping in the back yard. She says when she went outside to check on him, his paw was stuck underneath part of the fence. Right before she reached him, Zeus jumped up and latched onto her arm with his jaws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s when I heard her screaming, \u2018Oh my God, help me. He\u2019s biting me, he\u2019s biting me, help me, help me,\u201d recalls neighbor Linda Morrow.<\/p>\n<p>As Morrow rushed over to help, Presutto-Canon was able to pull the dog away by grabbing his collar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor some reason, she was able to get him off and she was able to get to her feet and he was sitting beside her,\u201d said Morrow.<\/p>\n<p>The longtime neighbor says as she approached, Zeus attacked his owner again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll she did was move her foot and her dog got on her again. This time he was being more aggressive on her,\u201d said Morrow.<\/p>\n<p>At that time, postal carrier Alex Uber, was making his daily rounds through the neighborhood and heard the commotion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI looked over the fence, I put my mailbag down, put the mail on the ground and I hopped over the fence to look. I was peeking over the top and I could see her being dragged by the dog,\u201d said Uber.<\/p>\n<p>Uber says he carries several cans of mace with him and handed one to the neighbor.
