]]> Tue, 6 Sep 2022 02:16:01 UTC 24341587 Anonymous [Signature #63] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/24330065?utm_medium=rss I was recently attacked by a dog on Nicholas Drive in Lamar County. Fortunately, the attack produced no physical wounds. However, I am suffering from panic attacks and not able to consistently sleep following this encounter.

There appears to be no interest to change these laws by our Board of Supervisors. They say they will consider (but not implement) a law if there are 1,500 signatures.

This was given to me by someone who does not even live in Lamar county. I hope everyone will pass this along. Please keep me informed via email.

These neighbors also have about 8 or 9 cats who are always on my cars, theses animals have scratched all of our vehicles really bad. We have built several garages to prevent this from happening. We have a large collection of classic cars. It has been a ongoing problem in my neighbor hood.

I currently have an entire litter of pups. The mother was dropped off here and she was so sick and skinny that she died within a week of having the puppies. There should be some kind of law here just like there is everywhere else, and the jerks that dump the animals should go to jail. I will continue to take care of these puppies until i find them a home.

It protects the leashed dog from other animals, protects other dogs from the leashed animal and protects the leashed dog from cars and other fatal hazards. The animal is not deprived of anything if you actually walk your animal like a responsible owner. Stop being lazy and protect both the animals and others sharing your space.

It is a shame there is nothing we can do about it.
