(…) I would be grateful if you could share information about the dangerous dogs that are repeatedly seen in the vicinity of Ceramiczna Street and Bolesławice (last seen on 9 September 2025) roaming free.

They may be dangerous to people.

The matter is reported to the police every time.

We appeal for action!

Dogs running loose in the city may be dangerous for several reasons:

  1. Risk of aggression toward people and animals:

    • Even if a dog is calm on a daily basis, it may attack in a stressful situation (noise, crowds, other dogs).

    • They are particularly dangerous for children, who are not always able to react appropriately.

  2. Danger to road traffic:

    • Dogs running loose may run onto the road, causing accidents.

  3. Spread of diseases:

    • Unattended dogs may be unvaccinated, increasing the risk of diseases such as rabies.

  4. Attacks on other animals:

    • They may chase, injure or kill cats, birds, and even other dogs being walked on leashes.

  5. Fear and social discomfort:

    • The presence of a large, unfamiliar dog without an owner causes fear—particularly among older people, children or women returning home in the evening.

  6. A lone dog may also feel threatened (and may itself be in danger):

    • It may be hit by a vehicle, poisoned, beaten or injure itself in unfamiliar surroundings.
