In southern India’s Telangana, a 4-year-old boy narrowly escaped a severe dog attack thanks to his father’s quick actions.

Visuals showed a group of four dogs spotted a boy and started chasing him. Acting quickly, the boy’s father intervened, chasing the dogs away and saving his son.

According to reports, the incident occurred when the boy was suddenly surrounded and attacked by stray dogs. Alerted by the commotion, the father rushed to the scene, chased away the dogs, and saved his son’s life.

Local residents expressed their frustration, stating that despite numerous complaints to the authorities about the aggressive stray dogs, no action had been taken. They emphasized that the boy’s life was saved only because of his father’s timely intervention and warned that any delay could have been fatal.

Municipality officials are now under pressure to address the stray dog issue urgently to prevent further incidents.
