POLICE REPORT

AGGRESSIVE LOOSE DOGS


On August 24, 2010 one of the Labrador type dogs was captured in the 2000 blk N. Andrews Avenue by the W.M.P.D. and Animal Control.  Please still be on the look out for the other two dogs. Thank you!    

DATE/TIME: Past Three Weeks/All Times
LOCATION: NW Section of Wilton Manors

On August 5, 2010, there were three dogs reported to be running loose throughout the neighborhood just east of Andrews Avenue on NE 29th Street. Dog #1 is a small yellow Labrador type dog with a limp, dog #2 is a larger yellow Labrador type dog and dog #3 is a Dachshund mix brown in color. These three dogs were witnessed in the yard of a house on Almar Drive and reportedly killed two pet rabbits that were in a cage in the front yard. They are allegedly responsible for killing a cat at a home on Almar Drive and NE 29 Street. These three dogs fled all the way to NW 9th Avenue and 19th Street in Fort Lauderdale where they successfully eluded capture. As of today, they are still at large and are reportedly roaming the streets.

On August 23, 2010, the Wilton Manors Police Department and Broward County Animal Control successfully captured a black pit bull that was running loose on NW 8 Avenue and 24 Street. This dog was responsible for the attempted attack on a citizen. This is not one of the three dogs that were mentioned above.

Due to the above information, the Wilton Manors Police Department would like to issue a friendly reminder to our residents and visitors to take precautionary measures and to PLEASE BE AWARE of your surroundings. We encourage anyone who witnesses any loose dogs in their neighborhood to contact the W.M.P.D. at (954) 828-5700 ext. 1. If an emergency exists please call 911 immediately. If you know the owner of these dogs or would like more information about these incidents, please contact Code Compliance Officer Kim Holinko at (954) 567-6062.


FEEDING STRAYS
If is important to note that many "strays" might be someone's missing pet and it is more important to contact their owners than providing a meal for the pet.  Many pets suffer life threatening allergies which the wrong food could trigger.  Give them water and CONTACT SOMEONE to start the search for the owner.
Notes from our neighbors

 PLEASE be careful where you place these products, especially if they are on the perimeter of the property as canines/felines are obviously very vulnerable.

Just want to bring to the neighbors attention that I truly believe that my beloved pet, dog, died this past weekend as a result of picking up a "rat bait" (what appeared to be a small square with gel insert) from someones lawn in our neighborhood (N.E. 16th Avenue) recently while walking him on a leash . I immediately pulled it out of his mouth but it must have been too late and set off a chain of events that perhaps caused his death.

I bring you this news with heartfelt sadness and to insure that you are of the situation and keep your dogs and cats safe.

Pets of ENA Registry: When ID Tags and Microchips are not Enough

By: Julie Carson

Have a Poodle, Pekinese, Parakeet, Pomeranian, Persian, or Potbelly Pet? Does your Pet ever prance through the Neighborhood without your permission? Then you must become a member of the East Neighborhood Association (ENA) so that you can register your PhePhe or Phylo or Popeye!

If your beloved animal escapes and is prowling the streets alone, ENA will alert other ENA Members (by email with a photo and other identifying information) that your furry or feathered family member is missing.

The Pet Registry is just one of the new services that will be offered by your East Neighborhood Association. We will present the details of this new ENA service at our next meeting, so please bring your pet details & photo if you want to register.

Your Pets will thank you for this added measure of safety as we enter the 2010 Hurricane Season!
