Tuscany dog attack

However, I would like to share a story some very UN-neighbourly behaviour I recently encountered. I was walking my dog on Wednesday September 15; we came to the field we always walk to, where I can let him off leash to throw a ball. Often we encounter other people walking their dogs and doing the exact same thing. This day was no exception. My dog playfully ran up and around the group and I called to them that he is friendly with puppies and children and not to worry. The man pulled his puppy up by her harness in to his arms; Even though my dog was no longer at their feet, I instinctively apologized for him running up to them, assuring him that my dog is up to date with all shots, if that was his concern with the new puppy. I understand that some people are just not comfortable with their dogs being around other dogs off leash. So, I called to my dog, throwing the ball in the opposite direction as we passed the man and his children and we were on our way. While returning with the ball, my dog saw the group walking away behind me. He ran past me and towards them again. I called him a few times and he stopped short of them, still at least 10 feet away, before coming back to me. It was at this point that the man now yanked his puppy up by the leash into his arms again and snarled at me about keeping my dog under control. I was absolutely shocked. Did he actually just threaten to kill my dog? My initial reaction was to shout out some choice words back at this man, as I considered his actions to be not only rude and mean but completely uncalled for.

The owners of three dogs that fatally attacked a Calgary woman in June have been jointly charged with 12 offences under the Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw, the city said Wednesday. Police were called to the northwest community of Capitol Hill on the afternoon of June 5 for reports of an year-old woman being attacked by three dogs. Paramedics took the woman to hospital in life-threatening condition, but she died a short time later. Denis Bagaric and Talyn Calkins are facing charges. They've been charged with three offences for an animal attack on a person causing severe injury, three offences for an animal attack to a person, three offences for an animal bite to a person and three offences for an animal running at large. The charges result in a mandatory provincial court appearance. We need to know they got out, and it's quite clear that they did," said Ryan Pleckaitis, chief bylaw officer for the city.

Separate aggressive dog incidents on Sunday and Wednesday resulted in the death of one dog and injury of another, along with two people hurt. Two pit bull terriers attacked a man walking his dogs in Auburn Bay around 8 p. The pit bulls then ran down the street and killed another small dog. The two pit bulls were seized shortly after the attacks and brought into custody of animal services, where they remain while investigations are conducted. On Wednesday, a year-old woman was bitten during a dog attack in Radisson Heights, according to the city. The animal, a pit bull terrier, was not seized by animal services following the incident; however two bylaw charges — for a bite to a person and for a dog running at large — were issued against the owner. Ryan Pleckaitis, community standards chief at the City of Calgary, said the Wednesday incident occurred around 12 p. Anyone with information regarding either attack can call The goal for the city, Pleckaitis said, is to focus more on preventing incidents like these from happening in the first place, through educating dog owners. Calgary Humane Society communications manager Jenna Kardal said aggressive behaviour in dogs is often fear-based, however every dog is a bit different.
