Pitbull, Rottweiler, and Dogo Argentino breeds have been outlawed in
ghaziabad due to complaints of attacks by these vicious dog species. The
ghaziabad Municipal Corporation has taken the necessary action. The city authority released a number of additional rules for pet owners on Saturday, including the requirement that they obtain a dog licence, which will be granted starting in November, and that no family may own more than one pet dog.
When putting their
dogs outside in high-rise complexes, pet owners must utilise
service lifts and make sure the animals are muzzled. The choice was made in response to a number of dog bite incidences that have recently been recorded in the city's various neighbourhoods. Within two months, pet owners must register their animals.
"Pitbulls, Rottweilers, and Dogo Argentinos are three aggressive (khoonkhar) breeds, and keeping these
dogs is not permitted. No permit will be given out. Someone will be accountable if they purchase one of these. In
ghaziabad, these three species are all prohibited "Sanjay Singh, a
bjp leader and GMC council member, according to PTI on Sunday. Singh had proposed a ban on these breeds, which the
local body
house approved.
