A Poway woman is spreading the word on the importance of leash laws and dog parks after her dog was fatally injured in an attack by an unleashed dog in Garden Road Park on Saturday.
Cynthia Elizondo said she and her husband, Ricardo, were walking their 6-year-old miniature schnauzer, Chikis, in the park on Saturday when the attack happened. A man was throwing a ball for his unleashed, medium-sized, mixed-breed dog, she said. The dog ran toward the Elizondos, something that initially did not concern them.
