Summer heat makes pet dogs and cats snappy

A 6-year-old girl's pet dog savaged her right arm, almost ripping out the tendon, on Sunday at her home as she fed it a fresh bone.

When the girl and her mother arrived at a disease-control center in Shenyang, capital of Liaoning province, for a rabies shot, they were faced with a long queue of pet owners there for the same reason.
