Dog Attack Fuels Call for "Penny's Law" in NYC

A small dog named Penny was viciously attacked by two larger dogs on New York's Upper West Side. Her owner, Lauren Claus, is now calling for stronger enforcement of city regulations after the Health Department failed to act on previous orders following a fatal attack involving the same dogs. "This city doesn't really seem to care about the welfare of dogs," Claus stated. Councilwoman Gale Brewer, who learned of the situation through the CBS News report, expressed outrage at the lack of action. Claus is now spearheading a petition and advocating for "Penny's Law" to hold dog owners accountable for their pets' actions. The Health Department maintains they issued summonses, but the lack of subsequent action has raised serious concerns about animal safety in the city.
