Concern is growing over the presence of stray dogs in the area and after attacks by pit bulls on women and other dogs.

The latest attack in the countryside between Maracalagonis and Quartu has placed the accent on a problem that always appears dramatic.

The 46-year-old woman, Marianna, from Maracalagonis, injured by a stray dog (which also killed her two-year-old dogs) bears witness to the reality of an alarming situation, denounced several times also in Torre delle Stelle and Geremeas where in recent days the dogs, also filmed by a camera, attacked and killed a dozen cats.

The last episode is closely followed by the carabinieri of Maracalagonis and Quartu who are trying to reconstruct what happened and the implications of the disconcerting story.

The area where the episode took place is populated by several strays: among these there could be the dog that yesterday killed the dogs, Roads and Nikka, of the woman, who was bitten several times in the right arm and hospitalized.

The military has already heard from some people.

Meanwhile, there is no lack of appreciation for the wound, Marianna, through Facebook: «Roads and Nikka are dead. Marianna has a broken arm: she has bites all over her body and is alive only and exclusively because Roadster died for her, taking the dog off her," writes a user.

Another certificate addressed to the woman: «I hope she can get you back as soon as possible. What happened was terrible."

The Municipality, for its part, has mobilized the local Police and the Environmental Guards also for compliance with an ordinance on the management of dogs.

From Maracalagonis Michela Pedditzi , Enci dog trainer, explains that «dogs must be educated, they must go out on a leash no more than one and a half meters long. The owner must wear a muzzle with him: it is not possible that so many dogs are left free even in the village, often without the microchip and without the non-compulsory but appropriate insurance».
