At about 8 or 9pm on 12/5/12 the woman pictured came to my door asking for a flash light to be able to see and rescue a young dog that slipped into the sewer in the N. W. corner of Westminster and Rosedale.
It was not on a leash when it was being walked.
It wrangled with another dog being walked also.
The small dog some how fell into the sewer.
A ladder, rope, and more flash lights were brought from other neighbors.
She got a sewer lid lifter, went into the sewer, and the muck, and pulled up the un-injured dog with help from street level.
A rope and a ladder were also brought. 911 had been called, but was canceled.
The subject here is not unleashed animals, but positive neighbor response.
