Lakewood Civic

As you are driving around Lakewood you should notice some new signs (see attached picture). These signs are being placed in Lakewood at the request of the Lakewood Civic Association due to the number of people who have been chased or attacked by loose dogs, fallen off of bicycles or have had to swerve off roads to avoid hitting a dog in our subdivision. While most of our neighbors are responsible pet owners and do not intentionally let their pets roam there are still some people who purposely let their dogs out or do not adequately contain them. I do not want to see our neighbors or pets injured by loose dogs and I expect pet owners do not want to pay fines for letting their pets wander the neighborhood. Let’s be good neighbors and responsible pet owners and eliminate the problem of loose dogs in Lakewood.
