Stray dogs drive neighbors away

An old woman in Xi’an kept more than 10 stray dogs, which seriously disturbed her neighbors and caused three to move away. Surnamed Zheng, the 78-year-old woman lives on the fourth floor of a residential building and kept the dogs in her house. She had four neighbors on the same floor, but three moved out because they said they could not bear the mess, the stench and the noise made by the dogs. The neighbors and real estate management staff asked the woman to give the dogs away, but Zheng refused, saying that she lives alone and needs the dogs, who also need her.
