Well, the other day I almost lost my little puppy dog, Annabelle because of a speeder/stop sign runner. My puppy had scooted under the fence and was coming to find me (at the mailbox)...this just all happened so dang fast it's scary! A lady in a cream Chrysler 300 ran the stop sign in front of Glowdogs house...turned to the left, just as puppy ran into the street. She had to slam on her brakes (they squealed) to NOT hit my dog. Shame on her and what if it would have been a child??? I wish ppl would just stop! Thx TDave for your story.

I am so sorry.  That is extremely frustrating.  I spent an hour or two outside Friday evening trying to deter some of the speeders by yelling at them.  Got one guy to stop dead in his tracks :)  We were all set for a fight.  I guess he realized there were lots of us and decided to just mosey along!

This is certainly not the first time we've had an encounter go just like that.

If anyone is going so fast that they kill an animal, just let me know. Animal killers need to be delt with.
Please Annanites just die! 8 months and counting till I'm free of redneck, KKKville.

I can name a few...  Kill an animal is one thing, you even bump a child I doubt you leave with all your body parts..
