Chinese cities hunt for stray dogs after 2-year-old mauled by off-leash Rottweiler

This year, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Anhui provinces’ municipal management and law enforcement officials distributed free ropes to locals as well as information on pet registration and vaccination.

The Chinese online is divided as a result of the terrible attack and its aftermath. According to a survey by Hubei-based Jiupai News, 33 % of respondents believed that dog culling should continue across the nation, while 47 % said that in attacks like this, the owner, not the dog, was to blame.

Dog slaughter, according to Du Yufeng, the founder of Sichuan’s Guangyuan Boai Animal Protection Centre, is improper and may convey the wrong information to young children.

A one-size-fits-all estimate will only lead to more issue, she claimed.

According to a Shanghai citizen, some neighbors have been assisting stray dogs in their home compound in adoption out of concern that the authorities may seize them.

She said,” There have already been some concerns about stray dogs barking too violently at night, and I saw element security fight after a canine last night.”

There is no animal cruelty laws in China that can provide protection for animals. Conflict between dog users and other residents results from the loose enforcement of the regulations governing the registration and increasing of pets in each area.

Authorities have implemented numerous strict policies regarding dog rights over the years to maintain public harmony.
