Please read......... I live in a wonderful state but to all those that do not know the dangers please understand. Tonight on the news, I saw this sad story about a woman that was out with her baby (the picture showed looked like a Yorker but was not confirmed) off the leash playing and running off the leash, in many places you would not think one would be needed. The little guy (or girl) was running ahead to a lake. Well the story says the next thing she knows is people telling her that her baby was gone. She did not understand what they were talking about but then they said a gator grabbed her dog.

This is something that really needs to be known, if your baby is going to be playing or near a lake. Gators are a dog’s enemy! There is study that gators study and watch dogs as easy prey for them to grab.

If you do not know, please here me NOW........... Do NOT no matter where you are, a deep ditch, small pond or a trail along a lake you need to know .......... there ARE Alligators, they walk along land from water to water!

I am so sorry for this poor family but most of all for the poor baby. There is so much that can hurt our little ones but in the South please be aware of the freshwater danger that can break your heart!
