Woman killed by neighborhood dogs
Montgomery Herald ^ | August 10, 2018 | Montgomery County Sheriff Chris Watkins

Posted on 08/10/2018 3:03:59 PM PDT by Norski

released this statement Friday, August 10.

On Thursday, August 9, 2018, a resident of a Lake Tillery development on the western side of Montgomery County went missing while taking her daily walk. After several hours the 66 year old female did not return home. Her husband called neighbors and friends who searched the area. They were unable to locate her and call 911. Sheriff’s deputies and search and rescue were sent to the scene. Within hours she was discovered deceased on the side of an unused road within the development. An investigation was conducted with the assistance of the Medical Examiner’s Office, NC Wildlife Resources Commission and Animal Control. The investigation revealed she had been attacked by dogs. Law enforcement searched the neighborhood and located two pit bull dogs with physical evidence reflecting the dog’s involvement. The animals were taken into custody by Animal Control and are being quarantined. The owner of the dogs is cooperating with officials and the matter is still under investigation and review by the District Attorney’s Office. The name of the victim is being withheld until family members can be notified. The victim is being sent to the NC Medical Examiner’s Office in Raleigh for an autopsy. “This is a very tragic event, which has deeply affected the family, friends, deputies and first responders, our thoughts and prayers are being extended to all.”

You are correct!! Growing up my mother would never allow me to have a German Shepherd either- she had a bad experience with one as a child. As an adult, I found one someone had dumped out of a moving car. He was the best dog EVER, I want another GSD but unfortunately have not found one at the right time.

Well, perhaps for now. I suppose that the mods decided that last gif he posted (since removed) of a box of fungal suppositories was a trademark violation or somesuch.
