Sadly, we've now witnessed the inevitable outcome of allowing dogs to run off-leash on local beaches. A young boy was attacked at noon today at Rio del Mar beach by a 50 pound dog allowed to run off-leash by its volunteer foster caretaker.
Leash Law Advocates of Santa Cruz County (http://llascc.weebly.com/) will be speaking to the County's Parks Advisory Commission on June 10th, where the Commissioners will be considering a proposal by a special interest group (LOOLA) to allow dogs off-leash at Live Oak beaches. If you cannot attend and say NO to this ludicrous proposal, then send your email for the record to PRCweb@co.santa-cruz.ca.us and ask that your comment be given to all Commissioners. If you can attend and speak in person, against allowing dogs off-leash on Live Oak beaches, the meeting begins at 7:00 pm at the Simpkins Swim Center meeting room.
