According to the news, the dog owner suspected that he had returned to the mainland for several days and left the dog alone at home. The police classified the case as cruelty to animals and arrested the dog owner. The dog was handed over to the AI Association for inspection and care.
Casey reported to this newspaper that since 6:00 last night he heard a dog barking continuously on the balcony of a unit. He immediately notified the management office and learned that no one was at home in the unit. He worried that the dog was being abused, so he called the police three times. “I called the police for the first time at 8 o’clock last night because of a barking dog, and once more at 1 o’clock in the morning because of noise problems, and once more at 10 o’clock in the morning because of animal cruelty.” He pointed out that the dog owner did not come home this morning. The dog lay on the terrace and continued to whine intermittently, and his health did not seem to be very good. He said that at regarding noon today, firefighters, police officers and inspectors from the Aixie broke into the house and rescued the dog.
In response to this newspaper’s inquiry, Aixie stated that the inspector of Aixie received a report this morning that someone was raising a white puppy outside the terrace of a building in Yuen Long. Inspector Aixie entered the unit with the assistance of firefighters and the police, and initially observed the dog’s poor health, and had to be brought back to the center for further treatment and care. The police will continue to follow up the investigation on this case.
Aixie said that it is extremely inappropriate to leave dogs on the outdoor terrace for a long time. When the dog is on the terrace, the dog owner must keep the patio door open to ensure that the dog can only return indoors at any time, and the height of the fence on the terrace should be appropriate to prevent the dog from jumping and falling off the building. Dogs should also be properly cared for and adequate water and food must be provided in the house.
According to sources, the police received a report last night that there was a dog on the terrace for a long time. The police officers arrived at the scene to contact the owner of the dog several times but failed, so they broke into the house with the firemen. After preliminary investigation, the case was listed as cruelty to animals. One person has been arrested, and the dog has been handed over to Aixie for follow-up.
