The City of Edmonton says previous complaints about two dogs who killed an 11-year-old boy were properly investigated.
Kache Grist, of Osoyoos, B.C., was visiting his father in Edmonton for spring break when he was killed in a dog attack on April 1.
An autopsy found he died of a dog bite.
The dogs, reported to be Cane Corsos, belonged to the woman Kache's father rented a room from.
The city confirmed after the attack it had received two previous attack complaints about the dogs earlier this year.
The lawyer representing one of the victims told CTV News Edmonton his client was hospitalized for several days after the February attack with a punctured lung, broken ribs and several cuts and lacerations to her body.
In the aftermath of Kache's death, Edmonton Mayor Amarjeet Sohi promised to investigate how the previous complaints about the dogs had been handled.
