The man reportedly heard the boy tell his dog that the cat was afraid of it, causing a violent fight to break out between the two pet owners. The boy was shoved and his jacket and shirt tore off.<\/p>\n
The fight also took a negative toll on the dog, who ran away for 24 hours before returning home in a state of complete distress.<\/h2>\n
According to the boy\u2019s lawyer \u2013 Mohammed Najeeb, the dog refused to eat or drink and had to be rushed to the veterinary clinic.<\/p>\n
