Durante dog, owner well after raccoon run-in

+ Durante dog, owner well after raccoon run-in
Last week, we reported on a scuffle between a black dog and a group of raccoons that occurred at dusk near Joan Durante Park.

This week, we’re happy to report that both the dog and his owner are well.

Longboat Key resident Brian Dahms and his black Labrador retriever, Mzee, who is nearly 13, were the owner and dog involved in the attack. Dahms report that both he and Mzee were bitten and got rabies vaccines but are otherwise fine.
