Over the past few months, India has seen a surge in the number of cases of dogs attacking pedestrians or their own family members. In July this year, a pitbull dog killed his elderly mistress in Lucknow. This incident was discussed across the country. 

Later in the year, a pitbull dog attacked a child who had suffered multiple grave injuries and had to get over 200 stitches on his body. Then in Panvel, a video of a German Shepherd dog attacking the delivery boy's private part and injuring him went viral. Meanwhile, in Kozhikode, Kerala, a child was bled to death by a stray dog.
