Grey Bruce Public Health is seeking the public’s help in identifying the owner of a dog involved in a biting incident that occurred on Friday, April 10, 2026, in the Municipality of Grey Highlands.

Around 7 p.m., a dog, described as a black-and-white border collie, bit a girl at Memorial Park on Sydenham Street in Flesherton, which is next to the Grey Highlands Museum.
