Indeed cruel! stray dogs are a big-time problem. I too am attacked by one a few years ago but saved due to the thick cloth material of my jeans. I know of Hozefa also suffering one such attack. We have approached our area corporator and explained him the situation but in vain. Request learned and aware list members to take up the matter to the right authorities to avoid any such events in the future.
