The Grey Bruce Health Unit is seeking assistance from the public in finding the owner of a dog involved in a biting incident that occurred in Kincardine.

On Saturday, August 18, 2018, at approximately 4:00 p.m., a man was bitten by a medium sized, brown/brindle colored dog of possible boxer/mixed breed. The incident occurred at the natural grassy area entrance to Station Beach in Kincardine. The dog was on a leash at the time and later muzzled by the owner.

Staff of the Grey Bruce Health Unit need to confirm the dog is not infectious with rabies. By verifying the health of the dog, the victim can avoid receiving the post-exposure rabies treatment. If you have any information related to this incident, please contact the Grey Bruce Health Unit at 519-376-9420 ext. 1251.
