Re: [Lockwood] [East-CAC] Loose Dogs

There's a difference between a friendly dog sneaking through your fence and an aggressive dog breaking its chain and marauding the neighborhood.

One month we're angry at the City for not doing anything about the loose dog problem, and the next month people are sending out messages about their dogs getting out. It appears to be a problem that the City really can't control. We just all need to be responsible neighbors and dog owners. Dog Owners, If your dog is that important to you, you should do a better job of keeping up with it or give it to someone who can. If your dog gets out, no one is under any obligation to return it to you, nor can you control the treatment of your dog when it is out of your presence. Can you imagine the terror to be experienced by the neighbor who sees a trio of large dogs running toward them? I would freak out. People don't owe you or your dog anything. It is not their responsibility to help take care of your dog. It is YOUR dog, for YOU to take care of; which you can't do if you don't know where it is.

Two are all black, one is white/gray with brown spots. They are large dogs and travel everywhere together - they will be easy to spot. If you see them running around, please contact my neighbor, Roberto, at 919-793-8121. Thank you!
