A local dog owner may be getting a call from either city hall or the public health unit after a too-close encounter between the family pet and the OPP. On Jan. 5 the detachment received two calls to a residence in the City of Clarence-Rockland. A different officer went out each time and each time the officer who made the house call got bit. Both officers suffered slight wounds from their canine encounters. The OPP detachment has notified the municipal bylaw department and the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU).
