I want you to know that I’m grateful. Even though I have no kids or anyone in Willard. Personally I’m grateful for your wife and her colleagues swift and brave actions to save the kids from the dogs. Incase it hasn’t been said enough, thank you!

Behind the Home Depot on independence. Ask the Kum and go workers as well. They visit there often.

Yeah, I used to live on a 2-lane rural highway. I know what they're like.
>I get it, r/fuckcars and all that, but people have to get to work from rural areas somehow.
I get it, but people have a right to leave their house and exercise where they live. Cursing at them and blaming them for the poor infrastructure is nonsensical. They're not any more responsible for the lack of sidewalks or road shoulder than you.
Dealing with other kinds of traffic--whether that's car, pedestrian, cyclist, horses, or tractors is part of life and part of using the transportation system. Hating everyone who uses a different means of transport than you because it mildly inconveniences you is beyond childish and selfish.
Jogging and cycling on the road is literally what it's there for, when sidewalks and cycling paths don't exist alongside.
It's not suicide for them, it's homicide when someone kills them because it was just too darn inconvenient to drive in a way thats safe for all forms of traffic and arrive home 5 minutes later.

Conceal carry to protect yourself and your family. If you have an issue with that dog again I’d bet it’s the last time.

Didn’t read article but I would assume the owners are held responsible? Sure hope so

A good read for sure, it ends with him coming back and reuniting with his family and finding becoming himself again.. more of a hopeful comment in context.

I agree. I can't tell you how many times I've driven down many streets for whatever reason in the evening/night, and MULTIPLE people are walking across the street in dark clothing, not under a streetlight.
And don't even get me started on people who obviously were never taught the rules of the road, and that people who ride bikes are supposed to follow them the same as those of us who drive cars.

Lol neighborhood. It's a 2 lane highway, no shoulder and a 55mph speed limit. The farm roads are iffy, but H highway is suicide for pedestrians. I get it, r/fuckcars and all that, but people have to get to work from rural areas somehow.

I understand very well. I’ve been downvoted to the ninth inferno for stating as much. Breeding is absolutely important in a dog’s temperament and behavior. My labs retrieve and live for a splash in the lake (especially after a downed duck). My Bernese mountain dog wants to be at my feet at all times and loves to be a goofy, playful companion. Hundreds of years of selective breeding produces outcomes

if you feel scared just make your presence known. Turn on the lights, criminals operate in the dark. Leave a pet on patrol. Sit outside and they'll be too chickenshit to do anything.

I didn't see the guy, but his voice was unnerving. Heard him say something about watching the street as I was walking to the door. We're hunkered down. Folks in midtown just be on the lookout.

Meanwhile I'm getting blocked and told I must not understand anything about dogs because I brought this up.
Selective breeding over hundreds of years could only produce one outcome.
