London Ambulance Service sent crews, an incident response officer and a helicopter to the house alongside police following the dog attack.
From February 1, it became a criminal offence to own the XL bully breed in England and Wales without an exemption certificate.
Anyone who owns one of the dogs must have had the animal neutered, have it microchipped and keep it muzzled and on a lead in public, among other restrictions.
