In August 2020, Guna's daughter was bitten by her mother's dog in both legs. The daughter was taken to hospital and operated on.
The attack was reported to the county administrative board. But the mother stated that the dog left the country, something that the county administrative board never followed up. Instead, the dog stayed with the mother. In the fall of 2022, the dog severely attacked the mother and she died from the injuries.
"No one should be forced to go through this"
Guna believes that the county administrative board should have acted earlier and checked whether the dog was really given away, as the mother stated. But the provincial government did not have a mandate to control it.
The government has seen major shortcomings in the agency's handling of dangerous dogs and has therefore appointed an inquiry into the Supervision of Dogs Act. Guna thinks it's positive.
"This could have been prevented. I don't want what I've been through to happen to anyone else," she says.
Police investigation closed
The police investigation into the dog attack in Robertsfors has been closed.
"Among other things, a forensic autopsy has been performed and interrogations have been held. We have looked at the whole sequence of events. There is no suspicion of a crime, says Sofia Karlsson, investigator at the police.
Guna had hoped for more answers as to why this happened.
"I would have liked to get a lot more out of it. More about the dog and more about the circumstances, she says.
In the clip above, Guna tells us what she thinks about the government's decision to investigate a tightening of the supervision law for dogs.
