Neighbors tired of DC woman's search for dog

[Anonymous]

The dog in the video above (from Texas) WAS microchipped, which was how they found his family right away.

This dog is microchipped.

Mihalyfi lost Havoc on Nov. 9, when she took her two dogs for a morning stroll through the wooded Dalecarlia grounds. When a deer appeared, the canines chased it,
going through an opening in the fence that enclosed the reservoir.

Maybe a leash would have helped?

No shit. Unless you're in a fenced in dog park, leave your dog on a leash.

Even if the dogs had been leashed they could have broken loose if they really wanted to chase the deer.

You saw it on aol? That's messed up.

This lost dog (Havoc) is part Rottweiler (confirmed) and wasn't on a leash. Swell.

Wow, did you check out the website? I feel terrible the dog is missing but good lord
That's a lot if time they spent

[Anonymous]

Forget about the time; did you see how much $$ she's spent?!

[Anonymous]

In many states a dog chasing deer or large game can legally be shot. She ought to think about that the next time she is walking the other one off leash.

I have met a friend of Havoc's owner who was posting the fliers. I introduced myself and asked her some questions. I have two dogs and would be devastated if one was lost.

Havoc is a mixed breed rescue, not at all dangerous, young, and YES, microchipped.

If noone turns the dog into a pound or vet however, the microchip cannot be read. Someone might have just taken him in, like an older couple, who doesnt get out much and thus hasnt seen the signs.

Letting one's dog off leash in a fenced forrest area like the land off of Dalecarlia is not a big deal and noone in Washington DC is going to shoot a dog. THAT is illegal in a city, especially in a city like DC. PP who made that comment is clearly an idiot.

This woman is just doing what anyone would do if they lost someone/something they love. I can't believe how negative people can be. I hope she doesn't let the bastards get her down. I wish her so much luck.

Regardless of whether or not you think it is a big deal, isn't it illegal to have the dog off the leash in that specific part of DC? This is what I was able to find:

"In D.C., dogs are not permitted to run at large except in a government-approved dog park. They are also not permitted on school grounds when school is in session or on any public recreation area without a leash."

I feel sorry for this lady, but by your logic, you are clearly an idiot for making your comment as well.

Clearly the dog was not under her control. I stopped walking one of my dogs onleash in various parks due to the lovely [NOT] people who took dogs there and left them off leash. Rottweiler mix off leash anywhere is not a good idea.

And the owner is going to DE for a panel while her part rottweiler is roaming residential neighborhoods. Did she ever accept responsibility publicly for the offleash dog? I once had a dog larger than that and if the leash is held properly you don't drop it when/if the dog takes off.
