An Invercargill woman with 112 complaints against her dogs says they're not the vicious beasts people are claiming

The Otago Daily Times reports Danuta Boniface appealed her five-year ban on owning a dog at a City Council hearing yesterday.

In the past nine years, there's been more than a hundred complaints - including 68 for dogs barking, 17 for wandering, and three for attacks.

The hearing has adjourned until a later date.
