Probably. We pay school and other taxes, but they get strange around here.
DH was walking Beagle on her leash, and a neighbor's big weimeraner dog, who was not on her leash despite DH's instructions, attacked Beagle. Beagle put up a good fight, protecting DH. These people should not let this dog run loose. It's already bitten two people in the neighborhood. We have a lot of children here, as well as other dogs. DH plans to have another "talky-to" with this dog owner!
You are required to report any and all dog bites here. Teddy was playing with me and one of his canines scraped my skin and broke it. Had to bring his dog license down to the police station along with the vets report of what shots Teddy had for the year and file a report. Even though Teddy is a family dog, and he just scraped my skin, it still is required to be reported. And you can't get a dog license in Boston, unless the animal has had his rabies and other required shots. And you have to get a new license each year along with the new report from the vet. A great money maker for the city.
The baseball bat will be be accompanying me. I also wear some good sturdy boots, and am not afraid to use them. Beagle is a very peaceful dog. If the other dog ambushes her, weimeraner will have the heck kicked out of her. I am concerned, as she bit the neighbor's butt, and tried to attack another friend. DH talked to the owner after the first time his dog attacked Beagle, but he's become lax again.
It's very strange to me, usually weimeraners are very nice dogs. One of Beagle's best friends is a weimeraner. She's known him since he was a puppy.
Maybe if DH tells the neighbor they would rather leash their dog rather than hope your DH restrained you it might make an impression? Warn the guy you might go all vigilante on him and his dog. Of course the neighbor doesn't need to know you're really as gentle as Beagle, right?The baseball bat will be be accompanying me.

I know they've been required in suburban Cleveland since the late 1950s. My parents always had a dog, and I can still see the little tag dangling from our dog's collar verifying her vaccination each year. Heard it, too, since it would jingle up against the bone-shaped one with all the owner information....And I'm pretty sure it's not just Boston that requires shots to license a pet.
Oh gosh Dawg...I sure hope this situation is resolved soon. I know how you love to walk Beagle, and you should be able to do that without being in fear for anyone's safety.
Caslon, after much digging and frustration with the USPS website, trust me, it's there. They are annoying as hell, and bury and hide everything like a cat does in a litter box, but I refuse to buy a new box to send stuff.
Addie...you actually went through all that for a minor scratch from a family pet? Lordy....if we went to the police station here and reported a small scratch from my kitty or my daughter's inoculated playful dogs, we'd be in there every other day and laughed out of the place.
And I'm pretty sure it's not just Boston that requires shots to license a pet.
Oh Munky. I wouldn't call this a Petty Vent. Roaring Rage is more like it.
I hope you get good news from your mechanic. Is this your only vehicle?
It's petty until the new alternator is put in.
Monday I might be livid. The mechanic will let us know. Won't know until they take it out for a test drive and open up that V-8 to the hilt.
It's not our only vehicle Addie. It just happens to be my hot rod.
Dealing with insurance is a disaster. They are blood sucking animals. Slept me with $2,500.00 dollars bill. Trying to fight them is impossible.
