Dogs on Bear Island (Split)

I was reading it and I actually forgot the original question. The information and thread about dogs on islands or otherwise is an excellent thread. If I may be so bold I would ask the Webmaster to move the thread to its own home. I think it is a great discussion point.

I do not see where he is coming from. Except that he wants to criticize me.

The original question was NOT about docks, no matter what the title is. The original question was about visiting Bear Island. I never assumed anybody was bringing a dog, notice the word "if".

Anyway if the tread was hijacked it was done by ishoot308, not me.

The faun was killed by someone with no connection to the island that stopped by to let his two killer dogs have an illegal run. A couple of weeks ago a family showed up with unleashed dogs and were asked to leave the island. In this atmosphere I took it upon myself to let AC2717 know about the state off affairs on the island with respect to dogs. I was trying to prevent his being inconvenienced or embarrassed.

This is another mountain out of a mole hill that has more to do with recent legislation than anything else. Get over it people.

You found a thread that was dead for three days and jumped in so you could make a childish accusation. Like this is the first time the topic of a thread has changed. The funny thing is the leaders of the opposition have been very gracious. However there are a few immature hot heads looking for payback.

I have edited my original reply and opted instead to add you to my ignore list. I do however take exception to your name calling here and accusations of being childish and immature. I am not going to stoop to your level and return vollies. I think your actions here are disgusting and unneccessary.

...and here we have the a classic example of why the Webmaster wants to have a five post per day limit.
Very typical of so many threads...
1. Starts with a question, or good, useful information.
2. Followed up with some type of difference of opinion.
3. Followed by spirited debate.
4. Turns to childish ridicule, or all out battle.
What a shame.
As an aside, I found no fault with the first dog comment. I actually found the issue of island dogs interesting, as I never had concidered it.
And I still don't think the original poster has his answer...although he probably has long since stopped reading his own thread.

The orginal poster has found his party and visited the island by docking at the property he wished to visit.
To finally answer the original question ,( think it was with exta information as a just in case), you may dock on the inside of the mail dock and use the beach directly behind it as that is town property. To venture beyond that, if you are visiting an island resident, they should meet you and escort you to their property. (I don't know why anyone would not just dock at the party they are visiting) otherwise to go beyond the beach you are trespassing.
I would not park on a public street and then walk around in the backyards of the houses in that neighborhood. No one else should do the same on Bear Island. Their were many breakins this winter on the island so we a suspicious of anyone who does not belong
Now I think this tread is done!!!!!

Actually the beach behind the mail dock is not town property. It's private property. The town only owns a very small bit of land about 20 ft square. It is the grassy area where the phone pole and streetlight are. Other than that the island is private property.

I stand corrected.
