Just in case anyone follows us from Maryland. Please stay safe and your pup too.
ATTN. HUNTERS (especially those who hunt with dogs): On January 19 a major sewer line along Clara Barton Parkway in Montgomery County collapsed, the wastewater is now entering the Potomac River and the C&O Canal in the area while repair work is underway. The public is advised to avoid any contact with the wastewater. Untreated sewage can contain many pathogens causing a variety of illnesses ranging from E. coli to hepatitis. Contact with untreated overflow may cause people to get sick and could bring these pathogens into homes. Additionally, take precautions if waterfowl hunting with a dog. It is best to leave your dog at home to avoid potential exposure. For additional information please go to the DCWater.com website.
