Pet lost to gator
Have heard that a dog was taken by an alligator in Bradford a few days ago. Haven’t seen any word in news outlets or forums but have heard from persons that were present.
Just a reminder to keep your pets on leashes and away from the shore lines of any lakes. It only takes a moment for a gator to pull an animal into the water and even large dogs can be drowned before they can escape. |

Most of the people at dog parks and elsewhere whom I have met who have lost a dog have been to cars/trucks or golf carts. Keep dogs on a leash and keep a hold of it. |
Before there is too much speculation. From what people who witnessed the event, The dog was being walked by a pet sitter/dog walker. The dog was on a leash and on the path. Just goes to show that a hungry gator, especially one that’s used to seeing people isn’t afraid to leave the pond for food.
Also from what I understand, the gator was removed. |

Alligators rarely leave the comfortable confines of their pond. Keep Fifi well away from the shore and things should be fine. |
I did not want to live near water because I did not want to fear working in the yard. With my back to the water, I would always feel as though a gator would come up behind me and attack. I do not trust them. I do a lot of work in the yard and enjoy it.

What IS the ruling in a case like that? |

Recall a dog park friend had let Jon Snow out to pee in the middle of the night in a backyard on a cul-de-sac and, unfortunately, one or more coyotes took off with the pooch. He used to break up fights in the back field of Doggie Doo Run Run where they allow any size dog.
I could no longer celebrate Game of Thrones with the dog's owner and daughter by telling them "Jon Snow lives!" They are a fan of Game of Thrones. Jon Snow has a memorial bench at Doggie Doo Run Run. Lots of critters to look out for day and night here in the Villages. |

We had gator that started following fishermen, then start following walkers. A fishing pole and line may look similar to a dog on a leash. |

Nothing good can come of that. |

Made his way down our street crossed behind our house, to enter pond across the street. Neighborhood named him lucky. Stayed 8 days, then walked different route to a 3rd pond. Cameras are a good thing, but gator never smile when the light comes on So be aware no need to live near a pond, they can roam anywhere. |
