The Rosebud Sioux Tribe of South Dakota is holding a five-day veterinary clinic to help control a growing dog problem.

Three years ago, there were more than 80,000 dogs on or near the reservation. Tribal officials estimate the number has grown considerably.

The Indian Health Service treats an average of two dog bites per week. Packs of dogs are known to attack cattle, wildlife and each other.
