A Hong Kong man has surrendered his dog after authorities detained it and classified it as a fighting breed – the third known case in a week following a spate of attacks in the city.
The case came as animal welfare groups called for clarity on the government’s breed-classification procedures and a transparent appeal mechanism. They warned that heightened anxiety could lead to more pet abandonment and unfair stereotyping of certain breeds.
