Mr. ti,T, Anderson 1903 Tatum St. t~.e : Dog Nuisance i 1 2818 Trtarkentien explained the reason why Iulr. Anderson was called to meet with the Council referring specifically to T1r. Skogsberg's complaint at the Council Meeting of January 23, 1969. It had been reported that the dog continually ran loose and destroyed shrubbery. I~r. Anderson asked if the Council had received more than one complaint in regard to his dog. The Council informed him that they have had many cal7_s about his dog from different parties. Mr. Anderson admitted that his dog does runloose; but he said that they try to keep him tied whenever possible. When confronted witl~ a complaint that hi-s dog barked until 2:00 the morning of January 23, 1969, Mr. Anderson stated that his dog was not a barker. Ivlr. Ecklund stated that -they have had to chase the dog out of their yard 'oecause he tries to get at the rabbits in his front bushes and in so doing he breaks the brittle shrubbery. I~'Lr. Anderson stated that he was more than willing to pay for the damage the dog caused but that none of the neighbors ever tell him when the dog does damage property,*. Many times, he stated, he has received calls from people saying his dog is in their yard, but they won't say who they are so r~1r. Anderson can retrieve him. Also, he mentioned that his dog is not the only bla.clc Labrador in the area. Mr. Anderson said that the dog ti~ras registered in St. Paul but had recently lost his tag. He was not aware that Falcon Heights reduired all dogs to be licensed in the Village. NIr. Anderson felt that the stories were an exaggeration; but Ecklund informed his that he had talked to many of the neighbors and they didn't feel that way. NIr. Anderson stated that he would do the best he could to contain the dog. He purchased a dog license ~.~;fter the discussion and was furnished copies of the applicable ordinances.
