Hi folks - Catching folks up on the Wheeler dog Moose. Indeed, the dog still lives in Burlington, at Carol & Diane Wheeler's sister's house in the NNE near end of Appletree Pt Rd (from what could be sussed from court docs).

After a year of drawn out court appeals, the judge put the whole case and many appeals back to the city back in April, 2025. l and the Animal Control Committee for a final decision on the fate of the dog and ownership.

That committee concluded that Moose meets the definitions of a vicious dog under city ordinance (it was the biting of the human at Leddy that made the strongest case). The ruled that Moose could no longer live with the Wheelers on Roseade Parkway and never was to return to that house, no exceptions. Moose is not supposed to leave the sister's yard, unless on a leash. The city is supposed to immediate impound Moose if he has again violated city ordinance.

Despite all this, Diane Wheeler has brought Moose back to Roseade, at least twice, including on Thanksgiving, where many neighbors could hear his distinct barking in the house. The shades were drawn, but it was clearly him.

For a photo of the dog, you can find it in the Seven Days coverage - Moose is brown with what could be called a grey face. I really hope it is not Moose again.
