I did talk to the park manager the next day. She said that the owner had contacted her about the dog (after it was gone). She told him that the dog did not have a collar or tags and she said that he indicated she did not have either.
That concerns me. You have a dog running free in a semi rural area and this dog likely has not had her shots (or she would have a tag, right?).
The park manager told me that their insurance does not allow certain breeds to be in the park (BTW I HATE breed discrimination!) so the pit was not 'legal' in the first place.
I don't know. I find this whole thing very frustrating. If you are going to have a dog, make sure it is properly secured (several people came forward the next day and told me the dog is out 'all the time'), make sure it has a collar and MAKE SURE IT IS UP TO DATE ON ITS SHOTS!!
I see so many collarless, tagless dogs running loose around here. And they belong to people - who obviously don't care about their safety or health, not enough to move past their laziness and actually DO something. I started asking. I am thinking about creating flyer on RESPONSIBLE pet ownership and put it on everyone's door. LOL
