Chandigarh, February 24
A two-year-old Pomeranian dog was mauled to death while its owner was left injured in an attack by an unleashed pet dog of the Cane Corso breed. The owner of the dog was arrested by the UT police and later released on bail.
Complainant Ishwant Singh, a Sector 37-B resident, claimed he had taken his dog “Ozzy” out for a walk on Tuesday night when a Cane Corso dog attacked them.
The incident was captured on a CCTV camera installed outside a house. In the footage, Ishwant is seen walking his dog on a leash near his house when a Cane Corso dog, not on a leash, approaches them. Sensing danger, Ishwant picks his little dog up in a bid to save it. However, the furious dog charges at the 60-year-old, who drops to the ground. Ishwant tries to grab Ozzy, but the dog gets hold of it and runs away.
