Dog mauling on Lincoln Road worries pet owners and cafe servers - Miami-Dade - MiamiHerald.com
It’s unclear what set off the cane corso breed that ripped into waitress Amy Calandrella’s lip on Sept. 1. When the Van Dyke Cafe server bent down to give a dog a bowl of water, the dog bit her lip. She needed more than 300 stitches and underwent more than seven hours of surgery to repair the wound.[/QUOTE
A siren and any other normal sound encountered during the course of a day outside does not hurt a dog's ears. What the OP was suggesting does and amounts to animal cruelty. |
Of course not since we choose to expose them to sirens...it is OK..

UP FOR DEBATE: PUTTING PETS BEFORE PEOPLE

Said Mr. Wolak, “There is only one answer to fixing the wedge between us, and that is to get rid of the dog.”
