Tougher curbs urged to fix dog problems

Experts are calling for more specific regulations and stricter enforcement of laws on dog management as a way to prevent people from using such extreme measures as poison to deal with problems with canines.

The comments were prompted by a WeChat post that triggered heated discussions as it professed to teach people how to use drugs to kill unleashed dogs.

The post claimed that it was the only way dog owners could be forced to put a leash and muzzle on their dogs and handle their dogs according to the law, according to the post, which has since been deleted.
