Dog Problem We are experiencing some problems with dogs on the skating rink in Addison Park. They are running off with the children's hats and mitts as well as bothering them while they are skating_ We would ask that parents. not allow their dogs to run loose or let their children take them to the skating rink, in order that all those using the rink can do so without the dogs bothering them. Lost Pat and Ben Bridges of 3 Halifax have lost their dog and would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have seen or know his whereabouts.
