Harpers Mill Animal Regulations!

This is a reminder to all homeowners, we know there has been some controversy and confusion about certain breeds of dogs that are not allowed in Harpers Mill, so for clarification Section 11 of the CCR's states the following breed of dogs are not allowed to be kept at any residence in Harpers Mill, this includes: Pitbulls, American Staffordshire's, Terrier's, and Rottweilers.

All homeowners agreed to abide by these rules when they purchased their home, and if you are a renter it was the responsibility of the homeowner to make you aware of the rules of the community when you signed your rental agreement.

It was mentioned in the Community Newsletter published last week by Kuester Management, that they are in the process of investigating several complaints about dogs of the above breeds residing in the neighborhood.

Kuester is asking anyone who would like to register a complaint about these type of dogs living in the community to please email them as much information as possible about the animal to: support@kuester.com

On March 8th police were called after a homeowner witnessed two kids smearing dog poop all over the front of the community mailboxes on Shady Pond Dr, these are the same kids believed to be responsible for leaving dog poop on cars in the neighborhood, reported in an earlier story on this blog, when the homeowner who called the police, went to get the address of the home where the kids lived their father Homoer Plummer of 745 Waterfall Way came out and called the other homeownr a child molester, since he was trying to get their address to give to the Sheriffs Depatment, than the kids involded admitted to smearing the dog poop on the mailboxes, so Mr. Plummer went to clean the mailboxes before the police arrived,  the other  homeowner was trying to video Mr. Plummer removing the dog poop, when suddenly Mr. Plummer charged at the other homeowner and was making verbal threats as captuted on video.

Despite Mr. Plummer aggresively charging the other homeowner and Mr. Plummer being caught on video verbally threatning the other homeowner, Mr. Plummer pressed charges on the first homeowner for aledgiatly threatning him.

Forest Oaks Dog Walk Area

Well we just received an email from a home owner it is bad enough we have our own problems with residents not picking up after their dogs, this homeowner saw someone walking their dog next to his home and did not pick up after their dog, he asked the individual how old he was, and he stated he was 15, so he asked where he lived so he could talk to the parents about not picking up after the dog, the person replied that he lives in Forest Oaks, when asked why he was here, he said he was just here to walk his dog, he further stated that he has been walking his dog here in Harpers Mill for years. He was asked if he was here to visit a home owner he said "no I am not here to visit anyone, just here to walk my dog, I always walk my dog here", he said he does know people who live here, but he was not here to see them he was simply here to walk his dog.

The homeowner did call the Sheriff's Department who issued the person a warning, and directed the individual to leave the neighborhood.

It amazes us, we already knew Forest Oaks homeowners come here and illegally dump their garbage in our dumpsters, but we had no idea that Forest Oaks homeowners used Harpers Mill as their private dog walk.
