PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING- THIS IS A FRIEND OF MINE. YOUR DOG DID NOT KILL...YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO INSURE THE DOG LIKE SHE DID WITH ONE OF THE DOGS INVOLVED.
FRIENDSWOOD — A golden retriever, one of two dogs seized by authorities after the March 17 mauling death of owner Pamela Rushing, must be put to death — probably today, according to a settlement agreement reached Wednesday evening between Rushing’s family and the city.
The other dog, an Australian shepherd, will be designated a “dangerous animal” and must be registered with the city, segregated, neutered, placed in a florescent collar or harness, be covered by $100,000 public liability insurance and always have a “dangerous dog” sign posted nearby, the agreement states. ‘
The shepherd should be released to Bendel Rushing, the victim’s husband, within the next 48 hours, an official said.
The two dogs were present when a third dog — an American bulldog-Catahoula mix — attacked and killed Pamela Rushing.
