I hope I word this with grace and respect.
I watch two little boys. Yesterday, we were outside riding bikes in the front of their house, I was sitting in a lawn chair micromanaging. (bwhahaha) . Anyway, out of nowhere, so quick, a little dog off leash came running up to them! She came around from the side of a house and boom! there she was. It scared the kids. It scared me.
I'm wrangling the kids and the owner comes lollygagging along like nothing is wrong. Her dog is supposed to be on a leash! And she wasn't calling it back to her! WTH! I love animals. But, they are animals and they will react badly in situations they are not used to and with people they don't know. Luckily, this little dog was friendly. But after what happened to Pearl, it was a huge smack upside my head that I have to be even more vigilant because as we see, some people don't feel the laws apply to them. It's all about what they want.
I just wanted you to know that Pearl's tragic attack has meant something to me personally, not only for the loss of your sweet baby companion and my love of pets, but as a reminder that I need to stay ever watchful. She didn't die in vain.
I hope I said that right and you understand what I'm trying to express to your family.
