Dog
bite cases down Cases of dog bites in Dumaguete City, Oriental Negros, went down from 149 recorded in 2004 to 142 last year. City veterinarian Dr. Lourdes Socorro attributed the decline to the public's continuing consciousness against being bitten by dogs and she hoped the incident would continue to go down this year. Socorro said she was happy that aside from the reduced number
of dog bites, road accidents involving stray dogs also went down
to only 12 last year. |
