Dallas has a stray dog problem — about 9,000 of them. And some killed a woman

A deep growl came from the other side of Shaniqua Roland’s front door.

She was pregnant at the time and headed to a doctor’s appointment, but she knew she couldn’t leave the house. Not with the dogs back.

My terrier mix has gorgeous black, white, and tan markings. If I sit still and look intensely into his eyes, he starts barking at me. Heh. I don’t know if it’s annoyance or excitement but it’s funny. He’s not housebroken, though, and at his age, 1 1/2, may never be. Sigh.

I agree. My kids did an Eagle service project at a shelter in Austin and told me that most of what they saw there were pit bull or pit bull mix with warnings on the cages. Austin is a no-kill city. You’d think someone would connect the dots.

When we got our cat from the shelter here in Los Angeles this year almost all the dogs we saw there were pitbulls.

Give me $100,000, immunity from firearms discharge laws and animal cruelty laws (no animal will suffer however), plus a full time body guard, and I will make the problem disappear for you Dallas.

I have a yorkie that I got from a shelter that isn’t very well housebroken, so she wears dog diapers with a kotex pad. Works great! I keep several diapers on hand and boxes of pads.

“Roast Pitbull served with your favorite sauce cures AIDS and Impotence, PERMANENTLY!”

There, give that a few weeks on Twitter, Facebook & YouTube and you’ll see a drastic reduction in the problem.

Easy remedy. City/County/State advertises Dog Hunt and bounty for 3 day weekend with suppressed firearms, crossbows, bows, only. Make it a $10.00 bounty per dog. No more feral dog problems.

Remember the story of the town overrun with Chihuahuas? Well....someone started taking out the trash in that town.....the citizens AND the cops turned a blind eye to culling them.

Reminds me of a joke (after South Vietnam fell) and we ended up taking in lots of refugees.

A cook-book titled: “Forty-seven Ways to Wok Your Dog”

Thanks for adopting this little one. I would go back and get the other small one!

Mexicans just jettison pets to the streets when they no longer want to spend any money to take care of them. We have friends who rescue certain pets (they know how to take care of) and that’s the areas this happens in. Living under cars, on the streets, and being domestic, they do not have the necessary survival instincts.

It happens everywhere Mexicans are. They view pets like disposables.

Whites generally hoard (older single women) or surrender to shelters.

If Lyn-Ted Cruz ever gets elected Dogcatcher, he can clean up the problem....If he ever gets elected.

“Visit any central American city - they have a stray dog problem.”

Isn’t that the truth! There’s nothing quite like a large pack of VERY hungry feral dogs following you and sizing you up, debating if they think they can literally make a meal out of ya. Have first hand experience dealing with such back in he 80’s, in Hue Hue, late at night. Had to chop into the one that was bold enough to finally make an attempt on me. That was all that was needed, because the whole pack then turned on the now very bloodied one. It was only seconds before they had him down and proceeded to start filling their belly’s, pretty much forgetting about me.

Once feral dogs start forming packs, they’re really bad news.

There aren’t many Chinese restaurants in that part of town. You don’t see that problem up Central through Richardson and Plano. Lots of Asian restaurants selling lots of meat.
