[Animal News]The dog that was run over to death by a private car in Ma’anshan was a 13-year-old dog girl “A Zhen”. She has been taken care of by Uncle Chen, a 70-year-old employee in the warehouse. Uncle Chen treats the dog like his own child . After Ah Zhen’s accident, Uncle Chen hurriedly took her to a large institutional clinic in Sai Kung for medical treatment, but there were rumors that the clinic staff refused to accept the case because they did not have an appointment. Uncle Chen begged hard for an hour before the veterinarian came out to examine and euthanize the dog. Volunteer Mr. He said that he had written to the agency requesting an investigation and an explanation. This newspaper is inquiring about the situation with relevant agencies.

It happened because Eric, an enthusiastic citizen, posted a CCTV video on the Facebook group of the “Furkids Care Group”. He pointed out that a private car drove to the outside of the Baishi BBQ site in Ma On Shan at about 3:30 pm on May 11, and ran over it at a slow speed. The dog resting on the ground then ignored the loud shouts of the staff and sped away from the scene. Eric also revealed that when the police called the car owner, the car owner had a frivolous attitude and said, “I don’t know! I don’t know!”

The dog who was killed was named Ah Zhen, who lived in the area with other community dogs before, and was ignored at first. Later, Uncle Chen took care of them, including implanting a chip with his registered name, and contacted the volunteer Mr. He to help them. They were sterilized, and they usually live in the warehouse and nearby open space, and they have been living in peace. Ah Zhen is also gentle, she did not expect to be killed suddenly this time.

Uncle Chen was very sad after seeing Ah Zhen’s accident, and immediately took her to a large institutional clinic in Sai Kung for medical treatment. Mr. He was not there at the time. He quoted Uncle Chen’s account of the situation at the time, saying that when Uncle Chen arrived at the clinic at 4:00 p.m., the staff at that time refused to accept the appointment on the grounds that the appointment was full on that day. At least the dog was euthanized to relieve her pain. After about an hour, the veterinarian came out to check on Jane, and then euthanized Jane because of her serious injuries. The staff also asked Uncle Chen to take Ah Zhen’s body away as soon as possible on the grounds that the clinic would close at 6:00 pm.

Mr. He said that he had written to ask the agency to explain the incident, saying that even though Uncle Chen hadn’t made an appointment, the clinic ignored the dog’s life and death at the time, which made the dog suffer for an hour, and asked the agency to investigate the incident. He also asked the inspector of the Aixie to contact the police, file an investigation on the incident and conduct an autopsy on the dog.
