The Grey Bruce Health Unit is seeking assistance from the public in finding the owner of a dog involved in a biting incident that occurred in Hanover.
On Thursday, December 17, at approximately 11:00 a.m., a woman was bitten while trying to separate two dogs that were fighting in the Hanover dog park. The dog is described as large, black and tan in colour, possibly a lab/shepherd cross.
Staff of the Grey Bruce Health Unit need to confirm the dog is not infectious with rabies. By verifying the health of the dog, the victim can avoid receiving the post-exposure rabies treatment. If you have any information related to this incident, please contact the Grey Bruce Health Unit at 519-376-9420.
