Lately there have been a lot more stray dogs and cats running around my neighborhood. I was getting a little nervous that we might eventually get caught in the middle of a turf war between the dogs and cats. But today when I was taking my morning walk I saw three animal control trucks and one animal control van driving around. My first thought was, "finally." But a few moments after that, two trucks began to chase a couple of dogs that had just rounded the corner, and I instantly felt really bad for the dogs and then the realization hit me that these dogs' days were now probably numbered. Next, thing I know I'm watching the scene unfold as I'm silently cheering the dogs on to get away, while still knowing that it would probably be pretty dangerous for the humans in the neighborhood if they did get away.
