Your request
How many children did you take into care (either interim or full) in the last financial year 2021/22 where the child’s proximity to a dog was cited as a factor in the care proceedings?
For each child please state if the issue surrounded either the (a) potential danger of a dog attack, (b) the hygiene issues of living in proximity to a dog or (c) both (a) and (b) and (d) the breed of dog involved.
Our response
No children were taken into care during this time period where their proximity to a dog was cited as a factor.
