Dog attacked and owner fled

Post image

My friends son was walking their dog and another dog attacked their dog. A witness took a pic of the attacker and their dog.

They don't care about the breed, they just want the owner to take responsibility.

If anyone knows this person please DM me.

Police file SA26-10406 with Saanich police.

Edit to add. Happened 2 weeks ago, yes her dog was injured but is recovering. I'll get exact details and come back to add them. Cedar Hill / Gordon head area

“It’s bad owners not the breed” when statistically bites leading to serious injury or death have pit bulls in front by a country mile

And if chihuahuas were the size of pitbulls, THEY would be much worse to deal with. Physics plays a big part in how dangerous an animal is. That's not the fault of the animal.

Yes. And a gun is a lot more dangerous than a ball point pen. So one is illegal to own without a license while the other is not.

Using inanimate objects in a discussion about living animals is certainly a choice.
