An Adarsh Nagar resident got 49 stitches in the face after she was attacked allegedly by a German shepherd. Her family on Wednesday night lodged a complaint against two people, including the pet's owner, at the Chembur police station.

Purvai Dattaram Patil, 19, who lives at R C Marg in Chembur camp, sustained injuries in the right side of her upper cheek and forehead, very close to the eye. She was discharged after the doctor administered the stitches in about two and a half hours.
