Blind dog's arrival to rescue leaves workers worried

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — The arrival of a 6-year-old blind dog has workers at the Sioux City Animal Adoption and Rescue Center asking for help. An unidentified person delivered the dog named Raven to the center in a kennel early Thursday afternoon.

The shelter has more questions than answers. 'We're actively looking for the community's help to try and find out who the person is that abandoned this dog along the roadway. It's very, very hot today, and it wouldn't have taken long, would have succumbed to this heat,' said Rarrat. Center officials say if anyone has information about this, please call them.

Street lights around Lake of the Isles to be repaired by end of next week, park commissioner says

Light may be on the horizon after months of darkness in a Minneapolis neighborhood. Walking and running around Lake of the Isles is a regular routine for Kris Ensrud and her dog Kellie. "You're starting to see it be darker, especially when I start out," said Ensrud. Ensrud's start time is before dawn, so she noticed when lights around the lake started going dark last winter. "Like infectious disease, just spread around," said Ensrud. About half the lights around the lake currently are not working, she said, calling it problematic. In the meantime, her dog has been wearing a reflective vest and she has been wearing a light of her own. "The lights are a safety feature. I think we need them for safety," said Ensrud. "I'm not just talking about assault or something like that, I'm talking about bikes and humans . . . so that we can see each other." The city has said the problem is due to copper wire theft. Back in May, city officials announced they would spend $1 million to fix 450 street lights that were out across the city. "It feels like we're in northern Minnesota, and we can look out, and you're almost ready to see northern lights, because it can be that dark around the lake," said Arden Haug, the pastor at Lake of the Isles Lutheran Church. "I think there is a sense of danger." Amid that darkness are signs of progress. Every day this past week, Haug said he has seen workers repairing the lights. Park Comissioner Elizabeth Shaffer wrote on Facebook said that "14 lights are done and the rest should be complete by the end of next week!" WCCO reached out to the city for more information on their progress regarding light restoration since May, but did not hear back. "We keep getting more excited that one day we're going to have lights, but it hasn't happened yet," said Haug. Meanwhile, Ensrud wants to remain hopeful. "I think it would be great. Great for the city and great for the neighborhood," said Ensrud.
