Outside of my friends house there are 3 dogs that live in the street. They named them Princess, Rocky and Al (short for albino) . Princess had puppies about 2 months ago, 8 or so, and they are the cutest little puppies. Wednesday one of the big dogs showed up with a big gash in his side and acting kind of crazy. Then the puppies started dying one by one. Then the big dog attacked a neighbor and that's when they decided that the dog/s probably had rabies. They called the police but they didn't want to do anything so they left all those rabies dogs in the street!?!?! Since my friends had played with the puppies on a regular basis it meant that they had been 'exposed'. (few people may know that you don't actually have to be bitten by a dog to get rabies) Normally you'd just go down to the clinic and get a rabies shot, however, this is the Sandbox and things are never easy. One, there's not exactly just a clinic that we can stop by and, two, they don't have rabies shots here. So the entire family had to be medically evacuated so that they can get their booster shots. I thought it was crazy when I had to get a 3 shot set of rabies shots before I moved here. Now I'm starting to think that maybe it wasn't that crazy after all.

But here's the scary thing. The police didn't get rid of the dogs meaning that there are roughly 10 rabies infested dogs, probably more, just wandering around. I think I'll probably avoid their street for a while, not necessarily because of the dogs but more so b/c the entire neighborhood will be after those dogs and I just don't think it would be safe to have all those people out in the street waving guns around (that they probably bought from the kid on the corner) and shooting at anything that moves.
