Auckland Council is launching a new campaign to drive down dog attacks.

Research reveals around 2700 related injuries each year, with just under 300 of those to babies and children under 14 years old.

The campaign will include radio advertising, street posters and community papers promoting ways people can keep themselves safe around dogs.

Auckland Council’s Animal Management Manager Elly Waitoa tells Mike Hosking there has been a 28 percent increase in attacks in the past year – compared to the 6 percent increase to the dog population.

Waitoa says the problem comes down to irresponsible dog owners being complacent.
