A DOG has mauled a young boy in southwest Sydney and left him with extensive facial injuries.

At about 10pm on Friday a bullmastiff attacked the four year old boy at a Lavington Avenue home in Chipping Norton.

Police believe the attack unfolded when the boy walked into the living room and the dog followed.

The dog bit him on the head before the boy's grandfather intervened.

The family was minding the bullmastiff, police say.

The child was transported to Westmead Children's Hospital with extensive lacerations to the side of his head.

The bullmastiff has been taken to the pound as investigations continue.

The victim's grandfather has told the Seven Network of finding the boy and his injuries.

"His scalp had been torn back," he said.

"I thought he was going to die to tell you the truth because it looked that bad."
