Health unit seeking dog involved in biting incident

Grey Bruce Public Health is asking the public to help identify a dog involved in a recent biting incident.

The health unit says the incident happened on April 15 just after 9:30 a.m. near the Meaford waterfront, on Bayfield Street between Trowbridge and Nelson streets. The dog is described as a Bulldog/Frenchie mix, white and dark brown/black in colour, and about 50 to 60 pounds in size.

The dog is being sought to ensure it is not infected with rabies. By verifying the dog is not infectious, the health unit can avoid having to treat the victim of the bite for post-rabies treatment.

Anyone with information related to this incident is asked to call Grey Bruce Public Health at 519-376-9420 ext. 1262.
