       COMMENT:
       … this is dead serious bad news .. avian flu in our pet dogs(and
       cats)!? This is serious. This is of colossal public concern. It
       is impossible to resist commenting on this one considering this
       is a momentous event in history.
       An astronomical numerical proportion of us are so close to our
       animals and pets we love them so. This takes us that much closer
       to human to human widespread avian catastrophe.
       ...this hits a very personal note for me. I am one who takes all
       precautions including masking outdoors and I have a small toy
       breed dog that I keep in close quarters with me inside.  I walk
       my dog on a leashe on my property daily in my own backyard. Off
       and on for several years now, I have had to deal with neighbor's
       stray dog and stray roosters on our property.
       May not seem like a big deal but it is a big deal to me and it
       is a big deal to those who respect animals, science, and the
       monitoring of avian flu.  I don't prefer  my little dog treading
       or walking in the feces or grazing area of these stray
       domesticated livestock or stray domesticated animals. My local
       Animal care and control have not been very effective or
       conscientious of avian flu and its impact on the world for me.
       People, Please contain your animals and livestock out of respect
       for your neighbors and out of respect for the very real avian
       flu! This is not “little house on the prairie” a fairytale
       television show where we all mingle freely together hand in hand
       all animals living in harmony where all species hug kiss and
       roll around in one another’s feces and bedding..
       ...let’s get real and number the contact points for me
       personally:
       .1) There’s birds overhead some of which have avian flu..
       2) the neighbors have backyard chickens and roosters…
       3)"Rocky" the  neighbor’s dog who is a chicken herding dog  has
       Been residing with roosters and chickens.
       4) CONTACT! I don’t want a big dirty unleashed dog who  resides
       with roosters and chickens coming up to me everyday trying to
       play with me or my little dog who is leashed in my own yard
       trying to relieve himself.(not too mention I especially don't
       want stray roosters or their trail of feces in my yard at this
       stage in my life because I only have less than half and acre to
       walk my little dog on leash everyday in an area which is in my
       own little backyard!)
       Some things are just too close for comfort
       Keep your hands and paws to yourselves some of us don’t like to
       be touched without the privilege of being able to at least give
       our consent first. Some of us prefer “no touching”...
       ...I just don't wanna play with "Rocky" my unresponsible
       neighbor's dog..its not fair to "Rocky" either . He's a
       beautiful dog but he just shouldn't be in my yard  I don't wanna
       reinforce his behavior of being in my yard by playing with him
       besides he's around dirty roosters all day as seen here:
       Video LINK:
  HTML https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oUBNDzyeRxDRann8knlx_PHWSZnaZin7/view?usp=sharing
       ..I like him I just don't want him all over me and my little dog
       that I have on leashe ..you know!? He might have some rooster
       feces under his nails ..I just shouldn't be forced to play with
       other people's pets especially because I have serious concerns
       over avian flu and he is a dog exposed to roosters and chickens
       all day. People just don’t care .. A dog just died in Alberta
       with avian flu and my neighbors just let their dogs and roosters
       all over the place. It’s stupid.
       "Tips for preventing HPAI infection in dogs and cats are the
       same as for many other infectious diseases: Keep cats indoors.
       Keep pets that do go outdoors away from wild birds, poultry, and
       cattle and their environments. Prevent pets from eating dead
       birds or other animals." and I might add keep your pets away
       from me! don't let your animals stray and respect your neighbors
       who might be more sensitive and educated about avian flu!
       People who mask and take precautions and are going the extra
       mile to stay safe and prevent airborne illness and disease such
       as myself don't necessarily appreciate stray dogs or stray
       livestock in their yards!  Please contain your animals for the
       animal's sake! Be respectful to your neighbors.
       You with your stray roosters, big stray dog your children and
       maskless family, take your own chances for all I care, but
       please stay way from me, the Masked Man and my yard & don't make
       others, me, my loved ones or my little buddy who is my dog take
       chances with avian flu and don't make us walk in your
       livestock's feces! >:(  Take responsibility.
       Rule your own roost not mine!,
       The Masked Man (lover of all creatures great and small)
       P.S. Number one concern for me as a masked guy is preventing my
       dog from sniffing or inhaling a trail of rooster feces from a
       flock of neighbor's backyard roosters that may have entered my
       yard! Not the easiest thing to do. Dogs sniff and inhale the
       ground big time.
       I personally would not enforce this law but what if I get
       exposed to avian flu first? (at least I wear a mask but my dog
       could get it from an unnecessary exposure then I would get it
       from my dog inside the house if I fail to take a lot of
       precautions in my own yard if there is an infection from
       neighbor's backyard rooster feces in my yard) here's just a
       little excerpt from the North Carolina State legislation (you
       know this law exists for a reason..Think about all the reasons
       these laws exist..Keep in mind, if any of these birds are found
       to have avian flu during an avian influenza (AI) outbreak, many
       birds, both wild and domestic, may be infected and die from the
       disease. For domestic flocks, some may be also be depopulated
       (euthanized) to control the spread of the disease...
       "(c) If it shall appear to any magistrate that after three days'
       notice any person persists in allowing his fowls to run at large
       in violation of this section and fails or refuses to keep them
       upon his own premises, then the said magistrate may, in his
       discretion, order any sheriff or other officer to kill the fowls
       when they are running at large as herein provided. (C.S., s.
       1864; 1971, c. 741, s. 1; 1993, c. 539, s. 540; 1994, Ex. Sess.,
       c. 24, s. 14(c); 2011&#8208;313, s. 1; 2011&#8208;412, s. 3.1.)"

       ...Ah some follow up reports with slightly more details as to
       causes of how the  dog was infected by avian flu for Data Report
       & Co...
       SUMMARY:
       "Death of dog after avian influenza exposure in Alberta marks
       second such case in Canada CBC News · Posted: Dec 19, 2025 5:45
       PM EST | Last Updated: December 19
       Goldendoodle died after catching bird flu from snow goose
       It's the second confirmed fatal case of avian flu in a domestic
       dog in Canada, with the first being reported in Oshawa, Ont., in
       2023. That dog also contracted the disease from a snow goose."

       Furthermore at the aforementioned link above contains a video
       within the site: "What’s the potential for avian flu to infect
       humans — and can we handle it?
       Epidemiologist Dr. Christopher Labos tells CBC News.. what is
       concerning is the easier it becomes for it to infect different
       types of animals, ‘the easier it will ultimately become for this
       virus to infect humans."
       COMMENT: Not once do I ever hear  "This is of public concern! Of
       course it is! I am part of the public! That sounds pretty bad to
       me and I know it is of public concern.. a dog ate a  snow goose
       and got infected.. I wouldn't downplay that as something that
       won't happen again and again.. dogs and cats are gonna eat prey
       that is injured, disoriented, sick and infected..that's easy
       prey.  I'm concerned with snow geese as well as backyard
       roosters carrying avian flu...
       Here's a link of me following around neighbor's stray rooster ..
       Tired of public agencies disregarding my concerns so I snidely
       and sarcastically  remark to animal care and control in the
       video  "Thank you for all you do" because they fail to take my
       concerns about avian flu seriously. They don't fine my neighbors
       and animal control argues that this isn't my yard whenever I
       give them videos to help me prevent these stray roosters from
       entering my backyard and after five years of this off and on I
       am frustrated and don't want my dog to sniff the trail of this
       rooster's feces. I only have a little area I can walk my dog in
       and it's my own yard. I have a right to be  thoroughly concerned
       and scared of my dog getting avian flu in a trail of feces. I
       have to totally avoid walking my dog in this area for days every
       time this happens..sometimes its a whole flock and roosters can
       get very aggressive around hens and flap violently in your face
       and get stuff in your eyes you can easily get eye conjunctivitis
       or worse from these critters as beautiful as they might be:

       They are so lucky I treat animals with respect. A lesser man
       would lose it!
       For all I know these roosters might have avian flu just like the
       snow geese why should a man of my importance take chances around
       either?...
       [*I only present you these personal videos solely and only to
       demonstrate my real life concerns where I am concerned problems
       of transmission of avian flu could prospectively occur]
       Here's a video of me personally trying to resolve this issue...

       ..why in the aforementioned video is the owner of the chickens
       not thanking me for returning his stray chickens!? ??? And am I
       the only one that smartly masks around flocks of domesticated
       chicken and roosters to help prevent the spread of avian
       influenza!? Sobeit!
       Mask helps protect me from avian influenza and airborne illness
       so I can safely return chickens and roosters to argumentative
       disgruntled owner,
       Here's a personal question that needs not be answered but that I
       want people to ask of themselves: That was the second dog to die
       in Alberta... What's your back up plan if avian flu in reality
       should be of public concern? How many dead dogs, dead cats, dead
       kittens, etc. is it going to take?
       (because they whoever they is, most likely aren't going to tell
       you when it should be of public concern.. you aren't going to
       receive fair warning from whoever you think is in charge it is
       highly unlikely you will be told to put on a mask for your
       protection prior to when avian flu strikes.. you and only you
       can initiate and decide what your backup plan is prior to a real
       outbreak be it avian flu, covid or something else. I've
       certainly got a back up plan in place for the next big
       significant outbreak...
       ...It's not normal to have all these birds and animals dying and
       dead with avian flu so why deny this or be numb about it? Why
       try being normal in an abnormal reality? Why not alter behavior
       that acknowledges reality that there is a threat? I choose to
       live as if a lot of fellow creatures are dying of avian flu
       because they are...I learn from recent history. I'm certainly
       not just going to submissively let what happened with covid
       happen to me. I am a person of great importance and so I treat
       myself that way. I'm well worth masking for. Once bitten twice
       shy and I'm Better safe than sorry. I'm expecting another
       catastrophic outbreak might occur in my lifetime and it won't be
       as scary as the first ..it wont surprise me nor will I let it
       take me by surprise call me a fool if you'd like but I have a
       back up plan... we shall use what we learned from the first
       outbreak.
       ...When is it too close for comfort for you?
       ...How many animals do we need to see dead of avian flu before
       we get concerned enough to create a backup plan for ourselves?
       ...What is the magic number  of dead creatures you need to see
       before ya start worrying, sweating and masking in public like
       me?)
       ...what's your backup plan?
       My back up plan is my mask and it's already on! ;) ,

       SUMMARY - In the country of Japan, an outbreak of highly
       pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) at a poultry farm in Kyoto
       Prefecture marks the ninth case reported nationwide this season.
       In line with national biosecurity guidelines, authorities will
       cull, incinerate, and bury all chickens (approximately 280,000)
       at the affected farm, which is located in Kameoka City. Farms
       within a three-kilometer radius face a complete ban on
       transporting chickens and eggs, while those located between
       three and ten kilometers cannot move poultry products outside
       the designated area.
