Stratford – The Perth District Health Unit is looking for two dogs involved in a biting incident in Stratford to complete an investigation. The incident took place on Saturday, April 5 at 5:30 pm on Norfolk Street near Borden Street.
The dogs were fighting when a passerby attempted to separate them. One dog is described as a medium-sized bulldog mix with a black and brown brindle colour; its owner did not appear to be present. The other dog was a boxer breed and was being walked on a leash.
The Health Unit is investigating this incident to check if the dogs have up-to-date rabies shots. If the dogs are not found, the person who was bitten may need to complete a series of rabies shots.
The Perth District Health Unit reminds people to always obtain the contact information of the owners of the animals involved in a biting incident.
Anyone who has any information on these dogs should contact the Perth District Health Unit at 519-271-7600 ext 252. After hours or over the weekend call 1-800-431-2054.
