<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoPlainText>The CV Chat and Discussion listserves are not seemingly
sending submissions to recipients in a timely fashion for subscribers for an
immediate posting (sans digest) but this is a problem for us subscribers using this
venue for a current emergency alert. I’m a CV resident - but in
DC during the week, but when this attack took place to my partner this evening,
I had hoped everyone on the list would have been alerted (sans digest
recipients). The victim of this attack, in fact, is a member of both CV
list-serves, but has unfortunately relied on me forwarding both alerts and responses
emails. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><b>In any event, from tonight’s (WED Dec 2, 6 PM)
vicious dog attack: <o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Our 12 year old greyhound is at Ardmore for a few days,
as Greg just took him there this evening – one of their vet techs is our
house sitter, in fact. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>We’re not sure of the actual house number where the
dog came running off the porch, but we are within a few houses, so it
won’t take long – with animal registration requirements.
It’s also unclear if those taunting the Pit Bull to kill our dog were on
the owner’s porch or next door, but that will also become clear with
further investigation from proper authorities. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Incredibly, and completely incomprehensible, was that
police arrived and determined that if the human under attack had no serious
injuries – a finger lost, a baby mauled, or worse, the Police said they
must hand the entire case over to Animal Control (note that the cop was so nice
and offered to administer first aid to Greg and offered a ride to the
vet. Animal Control is the agency in charge. Apparently our
dogs can be mauled to death, a dog owner under attack can sustain bleeding and
bruising and physiological injuries, but no police record is necessary under
the law, and in fact, no follow up that may help in even a civil case down the
road. That needs to change NOW.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Police do not go door to door to find the owner of the
dog in question, only Animal Control. Police are not able by law to
tell us which porch this vicious animal came from. We cannot learn from
police calls (our own, a witness, and a follow up witness) where the offending
dog resides: we need to only call animal control. So, I’m guessing
the Animal Control called tonight from our communal police calls found the few
houses in question tonight dark and unresponsive, and I suspect that the pit
bull in question was removed to another location for a month or two to hide
from authorities. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>I’m not one to sit back and take this injustice, so
we will be organizing massive media attention to our unjust Baltimore City laws,
just revealed to us tonight in these most unfortunate circumstances. It
is time to take back our city and expose to the masses on a national level what
we have just learned tonight with which is a common practice that can affect
every dog and cat owner, and even parents with small children! <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>In the immediate future, if you have a small child in a
baby carriage, any size dog, or even a roaming cat, AVOID the 2700 block of
Guilford Ave, as the owner of this young Pit Bull conveyed verbally and rather
clearly during the attack that “there is nothing I can do.” <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Look forward to an immediate community call for action,
growing media event, and exposure that this is a truly flawed Baltimore City
law, which we will push for CHANGE for us citizens living in Charles
Village.

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; color:#1F497D'>There is a pit bull in the 2700 block of Guilford Avenue that
attacked a 39 year old man and a 12 year old dog this evening, with the
encouragement of bystanders on the porch. I would highly discourage any
parent with a young infant or child from traversing this block, with or without
dog or child, until this situation is resolved, as this dog is currently
allowed by its owners to roam free and attack anything it is apparently trained
to do. Police have been notified, and there is nothing in the law that
they are able to do: only animal control can remove this dog from our
community. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
