The West Tisbury selectmen this week ordered the owner of a Husky to restrain her dog after an incident where the dog killed a chicken.
At a public hearing Wednesday, the selectmen learned that on May 4 the dog owned by Marina Sharkovitz killed a chicken owned by neighbor Angela Aronie on Otis Bassett Road. According to animal control officer Joan Jenkinson, this was the second time the year-and-a-half-old dog, Kota, had killed a chicken but it was the first time a formal complaint had been filed.
Tradition continues this weekend on Saturday, June 14 at 10 a.m. when the Vineyard Committee on Hunger (VCOH) holds its annual bread sale at Bunch of Grapes Bookstore in Vineyard Haven. The bake sale has been going on for 30 years, helping to raise money to feed the hungry and to raise awareness about the issue.
