On the 12th, Chuncheon District Court announced that it sentenced A (64) to a fine of 5 million won for violating the Animal Protection Act.
On June 28 of last year, at around 5:20 a.m., A was walking two Jindo dogs in Nongil, Hwacheon-gun, when one of the dogs bit B (74, female), who was walking her companion dog, causing injury.
B was bitten on her right wrist and arm, and later underwent skin graft surgery. It was also reported that she needed about three weeks of follow-up observation after the surgery.
At the time, one of the two Jindo dogs whose leashes had come off bit B’s companion dog, and B was bitten by the other Jindo dog while trying to stop it.
