The International Organization for Animal Protection (Oipa) asks the Campidoglio to introduce a regulation that provides for the issuing of a "Special Dog License." The license, explains the Oipa, "could prevent accidents, even serious ones, and would prevent subjects who are not able to handle so-called 'challenging dogs' from representing a danger to public safety. "The request was sent to the Councilor for the Environment, Sabrina Alfonsi, to the councilor delegated for the protection of animals of the Metropolitan City, Rocco Ferraro, and to the president of the Capitoline Environment Commission, Giammarco Palmieri.
OipA is now awaiting a response from the managers of Roma Capitale and remains available for further clarifications and support for such a realization by suggesting the establishment of a technical table preparatory to the introduction of a tool which would guarantee both the well-being of the dog and its family, as well as public safety.
