WCB Reader Brad emailed us Saturday (Nov. 21st) to let everyone know that he found a dog recently (pictured above), so if you lost one or recognize this one, please call him ASAP; here’s his email explanation:
A Small Black Pomeranian(?) dog followed us home from White center up Roxbury to 34th Ave.
If anyone knows the owner or has any information, please call (206) 422-5093.
According to The Seattle Times, two counts of third-degree assault were filed Monday (July 6th) against a 16-year-old Burien girl who allegedly sicced a pit bull on two women in SeaTac.
The female suspect remains at large. Sgt. John Urquhart of the King County Sheriff’s Department said a warrant has been issued for her arrest, and that she is being sought by deputies. She is slated to be arraigned on July 14th.
In addition to the Burien girl, the Times also reports that three White Center boys, ages 11, 12 and 13, who were with the girl during the attacks will not face charges because the girl is believed to be responsible.
The suspect, who is not being named because she is underage and is being charged in King County Juvenile Court, had trained “Snaps,” the pit bull (pictured above), to attack, according to charging papers.
Court documents (view/download PDF here) allege that the female and a group of boys were found abusing the animal on June 21st before the two women were attacked by the dog.
A 63-year-old woman says she saw four youths kicking the dog and pulled her car over to see if they were okay. The girl cursed at the woman and told her to butt out.
When the woman threatened to call 9-1-1, the female suspect leaned into the car, grabbed the woman’s hair and took her cellphone. The girl then beat the woman with her own phone, court papers said.
All this was witnessed by a 41 year-old Seattle woman, who followed the group to nearby North SeaTac Park. When the 15 year-old figured out they were followed, she walked up to the woman and head-butted her, then threw punches to her head and body.
Next the dog joined the fray and became increasing violent as the rest of the group egged the dog on. The woman suffered serious bite injuries, including wounds to her head and face, as well as serious gashes and puncture wounds to both arms. Her left forearm was flayed open and the bone could be seen.
Sheriff’s deputies arrived and found the four nearby, still with the dog. All were taken into custody without incident.

At Wag the Dog, your pet will have access to an outside fenced-in play yard which allows him or her to remain on their normal potty routine.
Another unique feature are Wag the Dog’s four “Dog Cams” (check them out here) which enable you to check in on your pooch anytime of the day.
Terri offers additional features including grooming, nail trimming and teeth brushing.
“It’s been my dream all my life to work with animals,” says Terri, who for fifteen years worked as a real estate appraiser. “I love what I’m doing now. It is truly rewarding and fulfilling to work with my clients’ dogs every day.”
Terri opened her shop in March, after looking at locations all around the south Puget Sound area.
