Lubbock's Dangerous Dogs

Since the start of 2008 Lubbock has experienced a severe problem with stray dogs. Part of this problem comes from the number of dogs that are not being neutured and spayed by owners. The more dogs that reproduce increases the number of strays. The high number of stray dogs that are currently wandering around Lubbock has also created a problem with dog bites and many of these attacks come from stray dogs. The most common dog bite comes from pitt bulls.
