Comm. Javier Souto building a dog park? What’s wrong with this picture? This is Javier Souto, who was complaining of dogs barking at night in his neighborhood at a past Commissioners hearing? Who in his district further reduced the amount of dogs per household you could have….instead of county that allows 4 he stated since he owned 3 … that was good enough. Who has upheld the BSL or Pit Ban in Dade County single handedly….who wanted all feral cats off the street… Ahhhhh… elections are coming up….. I see… His opponent is Mimi Planas, who openly declared she wanted the Pit Ban removed and wanted a stronger dangerous dog ordinance enforced. He must be taking lessons or paying attention from Joe Sanchez campaign… he fought for the anti tethering ordinance and always has animal issues on his agenda. Mayor Julio Robaina of Hialeah… who always has animals best interest at hand….He forgets there’s a difference… these politicians do this from the heart…
He just spent $430,000.00 on a dog park and they are cutting budget at animal services drastically? The animal shelter is falling apart…. they have been begging and been promised a new facility soon… still….the next mayor hurricane that hits will level the place…who are you going to point the fingers at then? I’m all for dog parks but….seriously now… why don’t you spend this on diagnostic equipment for the shelter, an x-ray machine would be wonderful….medication…no need to cut further employees…$430,000.00 could have done some damage to the seriousness of this situation. Yet… you build a dog park to go play and you build a baseball stadium to play ball…amazing….
Talk about sugar coating it down your throat….Mr. Souto… this tactic may fool some but for others it’s an expensive campaign tactic that the tax payers are putting up. All I can say is… I hope it rains on your parade!
