It’s summer; I walk past there often to take the bus; it’ll be horrible very soon…

While walking our dog, the neighbors (5910 S Foxwood Ln) dog (large fluffy yellow) came charging across the street, jumped and took our 80lb lab down by the neck. The neighbors dog never barked or growled, just attacked. I never heard him approaching, even with my hearing aids. My husband saw the dog charging and started yelling since this particular dog has attacked other dogs in the neighborhood. My husband jumped on the dogs, removing the neighbors dog from ours and holding it onto the ground.
I ran to our dog and crouched over him in case the other managed to get free. Our son ran to the neighbors door to alert them of their dog. Amber, our neighbor, came out to get her dog and was apologetic. She is having a party and someone opened the door and the dog got out. However, this extremely aggressive and unprovoked behavior by her dog has happened before so I want this on record. I will speak to my neighbor when I calm down. We checked our dog for injuries when we got home and he seems guarded but uninjured.

There is a dead fawn on S. High St, just south of Meadowbluff Ct., near the 2110 S. High St mailbox. It was very sad for the school children walking to Childs Elementary this morning. Thank you for all that you do to take care of our city.

I would like to compliment the Animal Control department for a job well done. I live in College Mall Apts. on E. 2nd St. near the Mall. There was a clearly injured rabbit hunched down at the play ground area for over 8 hrs that wouldn't move even when approached. The shoulder of the rabbit seemed dislocated and I was afraid a child would try to pick it up, causing severe pain to the animal who would seriously claw or bite the child. I decided to call Animal Control and an officer was sent out who arrived quickly and did a thorough search of the playground area. What we saw when she arrived was one rabbit, somewhat unafraid of human proximity, but hopping around in a reasonably normal fashion. The spot was clear where the injured rabbit had been sitting. Apparently what happened was the rabbit managed, after hours of painful effort, to nudge its shoulder joint back into place, and was just trying things out again as the officer arrived. No way to anticipate that happening. Having the Animal Control officers respond to these situations that may seem innocuous is the right policy. Things could easily have turned out differently and the officer's response could have saved a serious injury to a child, as this occurred exactly at the playground area of College Mall Apts. In a wildlife friendly town like ours, human-animal interactions are very common, and children don't always show the proper caution. Many thanks to that officer and the City. Job well done.

I live on E. Kerr Creek Rd., a little bit east outside of Bloomington. at around the 6000 block of E Kerr. Creek Rd., there is a house that has three dogs, two of which are pitbulls. While I myself have had pitbulls in the past, these two dogs look extremely scary. Even to this point, I would not care that they are scary, as much as care about the fact that they are behind a wire fence that it looks like they could easily devour if they wanted.
I have no desire to get the owner(s) in trouble or to get the dogs taken away, however, every time I leave the house it looks like they're going to jump over the tiny little fence and kill me.
I wanted to bring this to the attention to someone, with the hope that something could get done. I absolutely desire to stay anonymous. Thank you.
