Dudley labrador attacked by stray dogs


 Tyson the dudley labrador lying on the cool tile flooring of the bedroom. The marks on top of his head are the three spots of puncture wounds from a stray dog bite. He was given three anti-rabies post-bite vaccine shots. At least five stray dogs jumped the compound and launched an attack at 1:00 am. Have you seen dogs climb and jump compound walls as high as 7 ft? I can show you here in Chennai. Though i have observed this behavior in stray dogs only in that particular area of the city. A similar invasion took place about 4 months before this one when a total of eleven laying chickens, 1 majestic rooster, 3 full white guinea fowl, 2 pearl guinea fowl were killed within minutes. The dogs gained access into the coop after tearing apart the slightly rusted chicken wire mesh. It was a game night for the dogs and they left almost all the chickens there uneaten. One other incident was when a large barred rock hen was attacked when free ranging. She was taken away  by four dogs while i was watching and was eaten 75% within 2 minutes. I think that I should demand compensation from all those ignorant people protesting the removal of stray dogs.
