Dogs dumped on 23rd St near Green-Wood?

lostingreenwoodhts

Reposted from the 23rdstnabe newsgroup, anyone have any idea who dumped these dogs?

Yep, one is inside Green-Wood's grounds, the other oudside, following his/her. Friend. Green-Wood was alerted this morning.

Not sure if they have caught up to the errant pooch (inside the grounds) as of yet.

Anyone know who dumped the dogs?

They were a little frantic, trying to get into the cemetery, but wanting to stay right around the corner at 23rd Street and 7th Avenue. Both looking like german shepard / rottweiler / general mutts.
