I’m hoping somebody from that meeting will give us all a report on what happened. Hint, hint.
Us too. Second that! Roger that. Ditto. Bump. Word. Right on.
Dogs will be dogs. This has happened many times before and is one of the reasons that despite having my backyard directly adjacent to Dog Beach, in the 11 years I had my shepherd mix Bear (RIP) I never once took him out there. I know a few people whose dogs got Parvo and other diseases, running around that much dog doo….. hey if the intent is to let the animal run wild and free, well you can do that, and you’ll get it with all the negative effects the animal kingdom has to offer. “Shoulda got a bigger dog” sounds callous but reality is reality.
