Other: From Elm Heights listserve emails: The dog you are describing belongs to the people in the red house there on Southdowns in the block between Manor and Hawthorne. I saw the woman let the dog out, which she does every day. Then it runs all over the neighborhood, stops traffic, interferes with and barks at other dogs, and craps wherever it wants. I called animal control, but she took it in before they got there. A bad situation for the dog and all the rest of us. Debbie Collins A fairly calm older dog that seems to be part German Shepherd (but ears were not upright) is wandering around on Southdowns now (I saw her at 8:10 a.m.), 1200 block approx., a female I think. It's wearing an old cloth collar but no tags. I didn't get a photo, and a dog walker seems to have called someone (shelter? vet?), may have gone back looking for her after taking his own dog home. I didn't have a leash and couldn't capture her, and this other walker may have done so, but in case he doesn't notify the ListServe, I'm letting folks know...the dog was calmly exploring lawns, went into some of the dead-ends off Southdowns... -- Beau Vallance
Have not made connections between dog and possible owners at this time. Investigation to remain open and area patrolled.
Thanks for the additional information. I will have an officer look into this case. It appears that we have not had luck finding the dog when we have been patrolling your area.
