Dear Neighbors,
It's come to our attention that there was a problem with the video stream
during last night's East CAC meeting just before the Animal Control officer
updated us on the situation involving the St. Bernard on Rumson Road that's
been involved in multiple attacks on other dogs. I am happy to share my
notes to bring everyone up to date on that.
The officer said that her department's case against the dog involved two
dogs attacked on the greenway, and two other incidents involving attacks on
dogs in their backyard (in one case, one dog, and in another, two). They
have completed a dangerous-dog report on the St. Bernard, whose name is
Honey, and the case now goes to a judge. Since Animal Control filed the
paperwork in the case, they have gotten three more reports of Honey running
at large.
If the judge declares the dog dangerous, the owners have the right to
appeal and would get a hearing. If the dog is deemed a danger, the owners
would still be able to keep the animal, but when unattended outside it
would have to be kept behind a chain-link enclosure with a locked gate.
(The attacks occurred after the dog broke off its tether.) The owners would
also have to muzzle the dog when outside.
Someone asked who pays the injured dogs' vet bills. The officer said that's
a matter for the civil courts. The officer also noted that Animal Control
does not have the power to simply take away dogs in situations like this,
and she said it is very rare for an animal to be seized from an owner.
Since the problem with Honey arose, Animal Control has gotten a lot more
calls about strays in the area. They are asking people to please continue
to make those calls. They also encouraged people to snap pictures of animal
problems to share with officers when possible.
To reach Animal Control, call 919-831-6311, or 911 if it's an emergency.
Hope that's helpful,
Sue Sturgis

I have a 40 or so pound tan dog that was running along Glascock around the
Raleigh Blvd intersection (the side farther away from Stevens Road/not at
Glascock Manor). It must have broken free from its lead, which is still
attached. He is sweet and seemed accustomed to being in the car. I drove
around that area for 30 minutes or so asking people if he looked familiar
but no dice. Please let me know if you hear of anyone looking for him.
One of the firemen is sending out a message to the CAC; I'm not on that
list.
