Stray dogs found on key avenues used for NATO Summit and around the Henri Coanda and Baneasa International Airports, have been hunted down by dog catchers. Authorities announce that, during this period, they will not be able to answer other requests from civilians as they will be occupied to catch all dogs located near hotels and key main venues of the summit.

Stray dogs picked up in the last two weeks were taken to Bucharest special fosters. However, local authorities cannot estimate how many dogs they picked up from the streets. Authorities argue that a law ruling that all stray dogs should wear a chip, would help them monitor dogs better.
