Dog keepers in Beijing will face fines or loss of their pet if they
violate city dog-keeping rules, city officials warned yesterday.

They will lose their dogs or face fines of up to 5,000 yuan (US$625) if
they keep a dog without a permit, fail annual health checkup on their
pets, keep big dogs in downtown area, have more than one dog at one
family and bring their pets to wrong places or at wrong times, said Tang
Yunli, deputy head of the public security brigade of the Beijing
Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Tang said they began a two-week inspection of dog-raising in the city on
Saturday.

Based on annual registrations of pet dogs in the city between May 1 and
June 30, Beijing has a record 534,520 pet dogs, an increase of 75,747
over the same period last year, Tang said.

They dealt with 4,891 cases involving illegal dog keeping during the
period, Tang said.

Police officers also spread information about rabies to improve the
public's awareness of the fatal disease.

Beijing has seen a gradual increase in rabies cases in recent years due
to an increase of pet cats and dogs raised by citizens, according to
experts.
