We have some people in our neighborhood that are feeding the homeless dogs. This is very good in that it shows you are good people and have a kind heart. The only thing wrong with this is that it is the only part of their needs that you are caring for. What about their shots and other medicine they need. If you would take these animals to a shelter then they could find them a good home.

Another thing wrong with feeding them is they roam the neighborhood fighting the other dogs. If these homeless dogs happen to get rabies then they will spread the disease to other dogs. Children are playing outside all the time and could be bitten and killed by these animals. I called the sheriffs department and they said they could only take action if someone was bitten. Can you believe that crap. Several pets have been been bitten and some killed by these animals.

So you people who feel sorry for theses homeless dogs please put a little thought in what you are doing and what your responsibilities are. I tried talking to a couple who are weekenders about the problem they create but the lady of the house lost control and started screaming at me ( quite comical ). Now I believe ownership falls in here somewhere and will probably be tested in the near future.

The area of the lake I'm talking about in this case is Centerport Road. If your really care for these animals, do the right thing and take them to a shelter.
