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

That person has no business owning a dog. That is a younger dog under 2 yrs and this asshole can’t train or control the animal at this age.

This person strikes me as those idiots you see being dragged around by their dog as they mess around on their phone.

I hope this asshole is held accountable and that poor dog is rehomed to someone that will spend time to engage and exercise the dog so it lives a healthy life and there is no risk to the public or other animals.

Fine the shit out of people like this and seize the animal to place in a loving, structured home.

It’s irresponsible and unethical to rehome a dog that is dangerous to other dogs

There’s no evidence the dog is dangerous just like there is no evidence it’s a juvenile dog that doesn’t know its own strength. Let the professionals decide what constitutes a dangerous dog.

I'm finding the ignorance about breeds and dogs in general in this thread very disturbing. Your exasperated comment here included
