Shanghai residents who have more than one dog could be in trouble if they have not already registered their pets, as a one-dog per household policy has now gone into effect.
Owners had until Sunday, May 15 to register dogs, which had to be vaccinated and microchipped first, in order to legally keep more than one canine.
Stray dogs can be seen in many parts of the city and the rule is designed to help stop the spread of rabies, which results in about 2,500 deaths in China each year.
