its teeth in the throat of my llama. There was blood everywhere.” The other female llama was also attacked but not as severely. “I can’t tell if the males have any injuries because of their thick coat.” Schlegge has been living on Pattee Road for 20 years and says this isn’t the first time the dogs have caused problems. When the attack happened in October, he called the neighbour who owned the dogs and told him about the situation. “He admitted it was his dogs and acknowledged that they had blood on their mouths when they got home,” explained Schlegge. “He said he shot one of them, but a week later, theywere back. Police have toldme to shoot the dogs if I see themonmy property, but that’s not the way to deal with this.” Schlegge said he is afraid that the dogsmay soon attack a person or a child. “Once a dog gets the taste of blood, they always come back,” he said. “If a child gets attacked, theywon’t survive. I don’t understandwhy nothing has been done about this. Why hasn’t he been fined?” Mayor Robert Kirby saidhe had paid a visit to Schlegge after the attack to discuss the problem, and council clerk Linda Rozon said she had called the owner of the dogs who assured her he had killed one of the dogs himself in order to take care of the problem. However, Schlegge said the problem continues. Rozon said there must be proof before a fine can be given to the owner of the dogs. Korno suggested having a dog catcher and police monitor the area more often, however, mayor Kirby said there were dog catchers and
police in the area and it would be impossible to have one parked there full time. “If you see a dog, call us,” said Kirby. “I think we’ve tried to work with you, and we will continue to work with you to resolve this problem.” The council agreed that setting a trap for the dogs might be the solution. “We could set a trap on your property and catch them,” said Kirby. “It’s a no-kill trap so you don’t have to worry about your other animals.” Schlegge said he hopes something gets done before something worse happens.
A small groupof concerned citizens attended the East Hawkesbury councilmeetingMarch 9 tomake a complaint about several dogs that have been running around loose, attacking livestock and scaring residents. “The dogs have been running all over Pattee Road,” said Nancy Harvey. “They sit at the end of our property, growling viciously andmilling about.” Harvey said therewere two blackishGerman Shepherd-type dogs, and one small white and black dog. “I opened the door and, if it hadn’t been for the snow, theywouldhave come across my yard,” saidHarvey. “I was a little bit upset.” Ria Korno said the dogs have been around her property as well. “We’re almost afraid to go into our backyards,” she said. “I called (the owner) and he said it wouldn’t happen again, but the dogs are still running around. It’s scary.” The owner could not be reached for comment. Carl Schlegge said his llamas were attacked by three dogs leaving incredibly large wounds that required veterinary assistance. “My llamas have never spent the winter in the barn,” said Schlegge. “But I can’t leave themoutside with these dogs running around.” Schlegge said one of his four llamas required extensive veterinary care and that his partner is nowunable to go into the barn because seeing the injured llamas is too heartbreaking. “I heard screaming coming from the field. I saw the dogs attackingmy llamas.The Jack Russell had
