More than a dozen dogs have now been found by police officers investigating a dog attack on a six-year-old girl.
As part of the investigation, a van has also been found in south Manchester and is being examined while 17 dogs in total were found.
Shortly before 2.40pm on Sunday, March 26, police were called to a report of a child who had suffered injuries caused by dogs at an address on Ackers Lane, Carrington.
The girl, aged six, was taken to hospital where she remains in a stable condition.
Four adult dogs were seized by officers on Sunday along with nine puppies, and they were taken away by specialist partners.
Three people arrested on suspicion of owning a dangerous dog have been released on bail.
Inquiries are continuing to locate individuals Greater Manchester Police believe have responsibility for the dogs.
Detective Inspector Matthew Dixon, of GMP's Trafford district, said: "This is a fluid investigation and so far we have recovered 17 dogs and made three arrests, as well as a vehicle of interest.
"However, the investigation is very much ongoing and anyone with information should contact police quoting log 1612-26/03/23."
Greater Manchester Police has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) over the incident.
