A resident in his 70s in Tokyo’s Arakawa Ward was sent documents for raising more than 10 small dogs without the necessary registration and throwing feces on the side of the road in the neighborhood.
According to the Metropolitan Police Department, the documents were sent to a 76-year-old resident of Arakawa Ward, Tokyo, who did not register 11 of the 13 Shih Tzu dogs he owned with the local government and was vaccinated against rabies. There is a suspicion of violating the Rabies Prevention Law, such as not letting the dog receive it.
In addition, it was suspected of violating the Waste Management Law that three times from March to April this year, bags containing dog feces were thrown away in rainwater storage facilities and vacant lots on the side of a nearby road. I’m here.
When the Metropolitan Police Department was investigating after receiving a consultation from nearby residents that there was a strange smell, it was confirmed that the feces were thrown away.
After admitting to the investigation, he said, “It’s troublesome to dispose of the feces, so I started throwing them away about two years ago.”
A woman in her 80s who lives nearby said, “I’m scared if a dog that hasn’t been vaccinated bites me, and I want him to fulfill the minimum responsibility as an owner, such as disposing of his droppings.”
