Police detains owner of rottweiler dog that attacked old woman in Dehradun
The woman was rushed to the hospital where her condition remains critical. Devi, a resident of Kishan Nagar, was attacked by two ferocious dogs on Sunday morning when she was going to a temple near her house as usual. Hearing the screams of the old lady, her neighbours came out and somehow rescued her from the clutches of the dogs. Dehradun, Jul 7 (PTI) Police on Monday detained the owner of the dangerous rottweiler dogs that attacked an old woman in Jakhan of Rajpur area here and seriously injured her. Dehradun Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ajay Singh said that acting on the complaint given by Umang Nirwal, the son of 75-year-old Kaushalya Devi, a case was registered against the dog owner Nafees (40) under relevant sections. During investigation, police said it was found that Nafees had not taken any license from the municipal corporation for keeping 'dangerous' breeds of dogs. Nafees was taken into custody by the police and he is being questioned, the SSP said. The dog owners are accused of not coming out to save the woman during the attack. Police will collaborate with the municipal corporation to ensure strict action is taken against those who keep 'dangerous' breeds of dogs without a licence, he said. Responding to complaints of people being attacked, some killed, by 'dangerous breed' of dogs, the central government has banned the import, breeding, purchase and sale of 23 foreign breed dogs, including rottweilers, pitbulls and american bulldogs. Singh has requested people to inform police control room number 112 or municipal corporation office if there are any such dogs around them.

Influencer hospitalised after being attacked by two Rottweilers who were off a leash at the beach
A Queensland-based influencer has opened up about her harrowing experience after being attacked by two rottweiler dogs who were let off their lead at the beach. TikTok star Claire Champion shared a clip to the social media platform on Monday in which she revealed how terrified she was by the encounter. 'I am not okay, I have come out of hospital at 4pm after taking my dog for a walk this morning. We were approached by two rottweilers who were off their leash,' she began. Claire added her dog appeared terrified by the encounter, as they tried to escape without harm. 'We were walking down a nature strip near the off-leash dog beach. My dog is super-reactive, I pull her back in... The [owner] sees this and calls over the dogs, who see us and start running over,' she added.

'I picked my dog up, just bracing for it, thinking this is going to be so bad. The dog comes around, faces us and steps forward. Claire added she gave the rottweilers a warning to back off but instead it escalated the situation. 'I kicked the dog in the chest, I was like, "No!" My dog Billie let out a little bark, before I knew it I was on the ground with her underneath me, trying to shelter her from these dogs,' she tearfully recounted. 'All I could think about was protecting her. All I can remember is screaming, "no, no, no" as they bit Billie's legs. I fully blacked out.' She added she realised she was injured when she inspected her body. 'I look at my hand and there is blood dripping down it. I told the owner I need to go to hospital,' she said. 'I have to go in for day surgery tomorrow to get my hand opened back up and properly cleaned. The cut is all the way to the bone. 'I'm probably going to have to get both fingernails removed because they have been compromised by teeth. The doctors are really worried about infection. Claire added she didn't blame the rottweiler dogs for what happened but instead saw it as the fault of their owner. 'It was not their fault, it was complete owner error. Who the f**k in their right mind takes two rottweilers for a walk and then takes them off the leash?' she sniped. 'My poor dog and I are traumatised.' Claire finished by asking her 130,000 followers if any of them could advise her about what the steps she should be taking going forward.
