New York ranked among America's top 10 pet-friendly cities - especially for dogs
New York ranked among America's top 10 pet-friendly cities - especially for dogs

This town has gone to the dogs - in a good way!
New York was ranked as one of America's top 10 pet-friendly cities of 2009 by msnbc.com in an annual assessment that identifies cities with the cushiest amenities, friendliest spaces and coolest perks for our four-legged pals, with an emphasis on canines.
That should come as no surprise to New Yorkers accustomed to dining with their dogs on outdoor patios, going on long rambles through Central Park and letting Fido socialize at the Madison Square Park dog run while munching on a treat from nearby Shake Shack -- all mentioned by msnbc.com as reasons why New York is tops for dogs.
San Diego, with its off-leash beaches, also made the list, as did Chicago, where the posh pet boutiques draw shoppers such as Oprah Winfrey.
Smaller cities rated highly, too -- like Alexandria, Va., with its regular Yappy Hours (which also welcome cats), and the snowy mecca of South Lake Tahoe, Calif.
Rounding out the top 10 are Boston; Los Angeles; Portland, Ore.; San Francisco and Seattle.

Six rabid animals - all raccoons - have been identified in New York City this year. Four were found in the Bronx, one in Manhattan (near Inwood Hill Park), and one in Queens (Long Island City).
Raccoons are the most commonly reported rabid animals in New York City. Rabid raccoons are a relatively common occurrence in Staten Island and the Bronx, but rare in Queens and Manhattan. Bats with rabies have also been found in all five boroughs.
People and unvaccinated animals can get rabies, most often through a bite from an infected animal. Infection leads to a severe brain disease that causes death unless the person is treated promptly after being bitten.
People who see wild animals, as well as any animal that seems sick, disoriented or unusually placid or aggressive should be reported by calling 311.
