NYC Parks Isn’t Warning Dog Owners in Williamsburg That Four Dogs Died From Leptospirosis


Four dogs in Williamsburg, Brooklyn are dead from a bacterial disease called leptospirosis.

Dog owners posted the sign below to warn others at the park. NYC Parks told them that the signs will be removed because they don’t have permit to post them.

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic diseasemeaning it is a bacterial infection that can spread to people and animals. It’s also called Weil’s Disease.

How do people get it the disease from animals? People can get it from touching the water bowls, food or urine of infected animals.

Symptoms of leptospirosis are: fever, headache, and severe muscle aches. Jaundice, kidney failure, or meningitis can develop. Treatment is with antibiotics. (Source)

Many blame the rat population at the park and point out the holes rats have dug into the dog park.

Update: FINALLY THEY WILL BE GETTING SOME HELP!

“Dogs can get leptospirosis from puddles or bodies of water that carry urine from infected wildlife. The bacteria infiltrate a dog’s body by burrowing into their skin.” (Source)

The NYC Department of Health issued a memo about an increase in leptospirosis after 14 people in four boroughs in NYC had it this year (no one in Staten Island had it) – see here Only one person died from the infection.

Oreo, the dog pictured at the top had to be put to sleep and his owner asked that everyone share the information about leptospirosis being in McCarren Dog Park in Williamsburg.

Three other dogs that visited the McCarren Dog Park died in the last week.

You can vaccinate your dog against leptospirosis, but the vaccine isn’t 100% effective against all strains of the disease and protection only lasts about a year. (Source)

RIP Officer Jason Rivera – Just 22 Years Old

It’s a sad night in New York City…. Two police officers were shot in Harlem at an apartment at West 135th Street. They were there to investigate a call of a woman who was fighting with her son. (Source)

Officer Jason Rivera died. He was 22 years old. He joined the police force in November 2020. (Source)

Rivera was married to a little more than two months ago. She wrote this to her husband. We failed this police officer and his wife. It’s not right that she is alone and his life is over.

Rivera’s police partner, 27-year-old Wilbert Mora was also shot and is in critical condition in the hospital.

The 47-year-old alleged gunman was out on probation and he was using a stolen glock. (Info here) He was shot in the arm and head by a third police officer. (Source)

“Defunding the Police” and not caring about the safety of people who protect the city has made NYC spin out of control.

Tonight Jason Riviera’s family mourns for him – there are no second chances for him.

In the first 21 days of the new year, 5 NYPD officers have been shot.

Mugged Brooklynite Explained How Having a Trashy Wallet Saved Her Money

Brooklynite and NY Post journalist, Hannah Frishberg was mugged last night. (She says she’s fine.)

The thief wanted her wallet. When Hannah didn’t retrieve it fast enough from her bag, the thief took her whole bag.

Today, Frishberg walked past the spot where she was mugged and spotted her wallet on the ground. Her wallet was made from a juicebox and the thief must have disposed of it quickly not realizing it was a wallet! (Source)

The wallet still had all her money. Frishberg made the wallet out of a juicebox in 2017 – she explained how to make it here so you can trick a thief too!

We needed to end the night cheering for a crafty Brooklynite who got her money back and had a lucky day!

Attempted Robbery – Man Shot in the Leg on 79th Street in Brooklyn

Around 8:00 pm tonight, a man was shot in the leg near 1922 – 79th Street in an attempted robbery. The victim’s injuries are not life-threatening. (Source) We are glad this Brooklynite is okay! The thief fled towards 20th Avenue.

Not one politician will mention this incident because your safety is not important to them.

Andrew Gounardes is the state representative for that block. Ari Kagan is the City Council Representative.

Leo’s & Baci Restaurants in Bay Ridge Were Robbed

Very early yesterday morning, Leo’s Casa Calamari at 8502 – 3rd Avenue and Baci were robbed.

The thief took supplies from the well-loved Bay Ridge restaurants.

We need more police patrolling in Bay Ridge.

Elected leaders have looked away – not one mentioned it.

Yes, we live in an urban area, but robberies should not be common. If a politician is claiming to support small businesses, they should be doing something about all of these robberies. No one is going to want to have a business here if they keep getting ripped off.


Bay Ridge show some love to Leo’s and Baci this weekend!

The R Train Has Become a Traveling Hotel for The Homeless

R Train Riders are finding that their morning train has a lot of homeless people using the train like a moving hotel. Not one politician has done anything about it when people complain.

Another video was shared here – it’s heartbreaking to see people are living like this on the train.

The people sleeping on this train need help. They don’t want to sleep on the train. They do so because they want somewhere warm to sleep and they don’t want to be robbed at NY City’s shelters.

When people from NYC ask these people if they want help, they say no because the help they are being offered isn’t better than sleeping on a train!

Apparently, some politicians didn’t want the homeless at their train station. Last February, when people asked what happened to the benches at certain stations, @NYCTSubway said “Benches were removed from stations to prevent the homeless from sleeping on them.” 

If your family member was sleeping on a train in the early morning, you would want someone to help them.
