Chinanews, Beijing, Nov. 15 – Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau announced on Tuesday that 500 dogs collected by its dog inspection¹ center could be adopted by local citizens. Most of these are stray dogs or dogs sold illegally in pet markets.

A senior official from Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau revealed that many of these are abandoned by their owners. He also said that some large-seized or spirited dogs, abandoned or sent by their owners to the local police station.

The dog inspection center, located in Changping, a suburban² district of Beijing, is divided into three functional³ areas of quarantine, seclusion⁴ and adoption⁵. Healthy dogs quarantined and approved by veterinary stations can be adopted by local citizens.

Beijing has launched a two-month crackdown movement against illegal dogs like unregistered, large-seized or spirited ones. Some experts believe local police is flexible when it carries out such movement, and citizens have more opportunities to raise stray dogs.
