EDMONTON — Animal control officers were called about two recent attacks at an Edmonton home where an 11-year-old boy was killed by two large dogs.
Animal control was called about the two previous attacks in 2024, communications adviser Chris Webster said in an email. One of the complaints was concluded without charges and the other was still under investigation. Webster said the city made significant steps to address and investigate dog attacks and restricted dogs after council provided additional budget resources last year. A five-member team was formed, Webster added, and a key aspect of its work involves monitoring restricted and dangerous dogs with attack records.Last month, a woman in Toronto was charged after a dog attack left a child with life-altering injuries.
