Initially, this boy was walking casually in an alley in the area where he lives in the Cipulir area, South Jakarta. He walked there with his grandmother. On the way, Arkan seemed attracted to a house fence and came to the fence.
When his head peeked through the gap in the fence bars , suddenly his face was pounced on by a white dog. Suddenly, the tiny boy staggered and fell backwards. The grandmother was shocked and immediately helped her grandson.
The grandmother, who didn't seem too worried, tried to calm Arkan, who looked in pain. He was also seen rubbing Arkan's face and eyes with his hands.

In another video upload, Arkan can be seen lying in the treatment room with his other eye bandaged. It is suspected that the bandaged part of the eye was a previous dog bite.
He was heard moaning in pain, but tried to be calmed by those around him. When investigated further by brilio.net, Arkan is suspected to have suffered a severed tear nerve.

This is also what the owner of the X account @_NeverAlonely wrote, who also shared a video of Arkan's current condition.
"The 7-year-old child Arkan who was playing with his grandmother was bitten by his neighbor's pet dog on the left side of his eye and this resulted in his tear nerve being severed," wrote the statement.
This also caused a stir in the virtual world. This case of being bitten by a dog has once again become a topic of conversation among netizens who also wrote their responses in the comments column.
" Having a pet is not difficult, but don't make it easy. Owners must take full responsibility for their pets. Especially if their pets attack other people, " wrote the account owner @kura2giok.
" Can the owner of the dog be sued? " asked the owner of the @CokiePramuka account.
" Yes, yes, but there must be a report from the victim, " said the account @gobel_alvin.
" BTW, this isn't entirely the fault of the owner or the doggie. Because it's already in the yard/fence, it's a different story if it's deliberately released. That's a dog's instinct, so it's not uncommon for houses to give warnings 'watch out for dogs', " wrote account owner @namolaloli, giving rebuttal.
