There has been a number of stray dogs near the Everglade park area. Just this morning, we say someone in a a small white truck dump a dog in the alley way between Symphony and Cinnabar. We have called the city and they said they would have someone ''patrol'' the negihborhood for 45 days. We have yet to see anyone from the city.

Any ideas on how to stop this growing problem?

That is terrible!  The problem with stray dogs is that they move around.  Please do keep calling the city (3-1-1) as they keep a record and when they get a lot of calls from an area, they will come out and do a neighborhood sweep.  This is when they bring a large group of people with trucks and sweep the area.  Also, keep track of the Service Requests number(s) if they give you one, so you can call back and review the number of times you've called.
