Now YOU can report Dog-on-Dog attacks. It's quick and easy and free. The Dog Incident Page by DogFender

In the UK - over 700,000 dogs suffer bites from other dogs every year, with tens of thousands seriously injured or killed.

Until now, there are no other major global or UK-wide platforms that publicly record and display dog-on-dog attacks with searchable, mapped data, repeat offender history, and breed/location breakdowns.

1. Completely public – your reports are visible, searchable, and accessible to everyone.
2. Digitally centralized dashboard – users can track what breeds, where attacks happen, and repeat offenders all in one place.
3. Dog-on-dog focused – existing platforms either ignore pet-on-pet incidents or lack public visibility.
4. Community-powered – built directly by dog owners, for dog owners, rather than government or institutional bodies.

Right now, in the UK, there is no central system to track or respond to these attacks. Local councils brush them aside, and police rarely act unless a human is harmed. Meanwhile, over 700,000 dogs suffer bites from other dogs every year, with tens of thousands seriously injured or killed.

This is unacceptable.

That's why Peter Antonio created the Dog Incident Page by DogFender — the first-ever public reporting platform where dog owners can expose the truth, log attacks, pin exact locations on a live map, and warn the community in real time.

• Easy to use — Report an incident in minutes, from any device
• Location pinned — Every attack is visible on our live map
• Postcode search — Instantly see all incidents near you
• Upload photos — Share pictures of injuries, vets' reports, or offending dogs
• Track repeat offenders — Identify dangerous dogs and careless owners by breed and area

• Push for change — Our data will fuel demands for stronger laws and enforcement

No more hiding behind silence. No more guessing. This is about real dogs, real victims, and stopping attacks before they happen again.

We also provide:

• Transparent stats for campaigners and concerned dog lovers
• A united community of dog owners who have had enough

This is not about breed discrimination. This is about irresponsible owners and dangerous behaviour, no matter the dog. When you speak up, you protect the innocent — you do not punish.

Dog rescues witness the worst when attacks go unreported. Now, we have the power to document, expose, and demand action.

When 1,000 reports are logged - Peter Antonio will personally take the evidence to DEFRA, RSPCA, Dogs Trust, the Kennel Club, Police, and Local Councils to demand urgent legislative reform to finally protect innocent dogs and their owners.

Veterinary-reported bite incidents

According to the 2023 PDSA PAW report, approximately 6% of dogs in the UK are bitten by another dog outside the home and require veterinary care each year. With around 11 million dogs nationwide, that's roughly 700,000 dogs bitten annually (pdsa.org.uk).

Severe & fatal outcomes

On top of those, the site DogFender estimates that each year there are:

• 64,000 dogs killed by attacks from other dogs
• 44,000 more severely injured (dogfender.com)

This suggests that between 108,000 and 700,000+ dogs are victims of serious dog-on-dog aggression each year in the UK.

Report it FREE — in minutes

• Log the dog, owner, breed, time & postcode.
• See which dogs are attacking, where, and how often.
• Track repeat offenders — same dog, same owner, same area.
• No more rumours. No more guessing. Real-time updates.
• This protects all dog owners.

Each report will be subject to verification and approval.
