The Kuala Lumpur-based Malaysian Kennel Association (MKA) will be having a meeting later in the week with the Subang Jaya municipality (MPSJ).
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the incident of a dog attack last month that left an elderly jogger dead in Subang Jaya.
MPSJ had announced that they would be seeking the views of all stakeholders before deciding to respond on what it will do over the matter.
Since MKA is one of the oldest animal nongovernmental organisation in the country MKA would like to proffer their views particularly about dog breeds in the country.
It's president, Larry Yuen who has also served as an international judge at well-known dog shows will be presenting MPSJ with the best ideas of dealing with irresponsible pet owners.

The almost 100-year old organisation which champions dog breeds in the country is expected to point out that "banning" or "restricting" dog breeds like working dogs is not the way to solve problems of dog attacks.
Speaking to PET+BLOGSPOT last week, Mr Yuen told us that he will show the local council how such efforts had failed in overseas countries.
PETPOSITIVE will be joining MKA at the meeting.
