I don't know who the owner is of this dog, or who the dog is and my own children were not at school that day. I do know that this happened near the school, on Mesa.
The dog who was hospitalized is extremely docile.
As a parent of two school age children, and a new puppy, I'm VERY scared of a repeat incident and unfortunately have to take the step of carrying bear spray to take my children to school in case this dog tries to attack us.
If the owner wants to offer reassurance of exactly WHY this will never happen again, then that would help ease some deep concern.
I absolutely hope this is reported to animal control. The safety of others trumps the difficult feelings of keeping a dangerous dog. This is also along the trick or treating route on Tuesday and I hope their dog is appropriately restrained, both Tuesday and any other day.
