dog bites

Bhiwandi East MLA Rais Shaikh has demanded an FIR be filed for negligence in the case. "In the past two or three months, nearly 800 children have been attacked by dogs in Bhiwandi. Another girl, Nayeeb, who a dog bit on July 8, passed away today. She was in a lot of pain and it is a sad incident," Shaikh said.

A pack of stray dogs mauled a one-year-old to death in Hyderabad's Shamshabad on early Thursday morning.

A woman was severely injured after her neighbour unleashed a Pitbull on her after a heated argument in Delhi.

The GMC officials found that the accused family had three pet dogs of the Pomeranian breed and they did provide the vaccination proof for these three dogs. However, they had also domesticated dogs of Indian breeds and had not shared the details of their vaccination.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), every year, more than 55,000 individuals die as a result of a dog bite due to a lack of awareness about the importance of seeking medical attention after a dog bite. India is a rabies-endemic country, accounting for 36% of global rabies deaths.
