returning a 5 year old's ball, so we adapted and now it goes along side the houses, so he can get it <br />back. He asks for his stuff back every time and often greets me with "hello neighbor" when I get out <br />of my car or go on my back deck. I will always respond as more adults should. With a smile and a <br />wave. <br />The anxiety associated with dogs breaks my heart, but is well beyond my control. I tried to show <br />vicki how to walk Blake last summer, she was uncomfortable as he is powerful and huskies have an <br />instinctive pull response in my experience. She has always been afraid of Blake since he bit Joe the <br />first 7 days they had him. They tried to bring him back and the Humane Society employee told them <br />he would be put down so they kept him. He has since bitten Joe 2 more times. I can understand <br />her fear, but the transference to my own dogs is not ours to carry. My dogs have never bitten <br />anyone, they should not pay for the actions of another dog. <br />The approval of this kennel license would actually alleviate a lot of stress for us. There will not be <br />any eruptions of barking after it's approval because I am the one who wanted it to stop to start with. <br />I just want to coexist as peacefully as possible. This gave us an opportunity to get out and meet our <br />neighbors and we learned a lot of them are supportive of our dogs and family. There were two guys <br />across the street who asked us about it. One was surprised there was a limit. The other was <br />concerned it would be like Dakotah's. When I explained that they have always been here (2 years), <br />his exact words were "I'm not going to stand in your way. Dogs are family". That is the bottom <br />line. These are our babies as we may never have anymore. They are part of our Christmas cards <br />every year. We bring them to socialize and meet all of their needs. I chose bullies because they <br />handle anxiety and depression well. If I do not feel like a walk that afternoon, they are all perfectly <br />happy watching Cruella. They love a good 2-5 mile walk, which is what we average when we are on <br />good weeks. I apologize if this is choppy. This is very emotional for me as I type it. Thinking of <br />the medical issues we face and how they contribute to the inevitable evolution of our family. I <br />would also like to share, if there were a point where we sold, we would allow all permits and such to <br />lapse prior to the sale to protect our neighbors and the city from a potentially challenging situation <br />going forward. We appreciate your time. Have a wonderful day. <br />Kindest Regards, <br />The Applicants <br />Also, is it possible to add <br />There are no more fence encounters as we tie our dogs out on tie outs to potty. I plan on adding a <br />snow fence about a foot from the wood privacy fence (easily removed for mowing and durable) to <br />create an additional barrier. There have been several parties and bon fires next door without any <br />incidents for years including 2021. Our dogs do not spend extended periods of time outside that <br />would cause them to infringe on anyone's use of backyards, they never have. We have video <br />recordings of our backyard that can show they go out one to two at a time and it takes all of 5-10 <br />minutes to cycle them all out when we do. They just stink to send. We walk them (weather <br />permitting), they all do great on the leash, some with adaptive technologies like different harnesses. <br />
