DOG: ‘You should have
heard the screams.’

“I have some ideas for
scheduled posts for Face-
book,” Christopher said. “We
don’t have to do it every day,
but I will have something up
at least once a week. I will pri-
vately push it out to people
as well. It just takes time and
effort. I have a stream of con-
sciousness, what I’d like to do
over the next fi ve months and
things we can roll out.”
Richard Walsh, co-chair
of the project’s fundraising
committee, noted the various
committees overlap some-
what.
“The thing we ran into
with fundraising is a lot of it
feels like public outreach,”
Walsh said. “We have set up
meetings with every neigh-
borhood association in the
Salem and Keizer area and al-
most every Rotary club. That
list is overwhelming with only
four people on fundraising.
We need to think of it as ev-
eryone’s mission. It’s just too
big.
“What we need to get to is
the local churches,” he added.
“We need to get them signed
up. All of these things are in-

the Big Toy project.
termixed. We need to make
the pitch for everyone. We’ve
done all the groundwork, so
we’re all ready to go. We need
to all be thinking about going
out, not just the four of us on
fundraising.”
Caillier agrees word of the
project needs to be pushed
out more.
“With public relations, we
haven’t done some of the real
basic stuff,” he said. “We need
to be on the Keizer Chamber
calendar, on K23, in fl yers at
grocery stores. We need to do
some real basic stuff. I came
away (from last week’s meet-
ing) with the idea they have a
solid handle on what we need
to do. We need to get volun-
teers to help do it.”
For good measure, Caillier
made a joking reference to the
controversial call at the end of
Sunday’s Super Bowl.
“We don’t want to get to
the half yard line and throw an
interception instead of run-
ning it in for a touchdown,”
Caillier joked. “We need to
make the right play calls. We
need to take what Richard
said to heart. We need to do
all the jobs and leverage all the
friends.”
Also discussed on Tuesday
was the idea of doing a video
to publicize the project, as well
as translating information to
Spanish and getting basic in-
formation onto business cards
that can be distributed easily.
Quinn also implored ev-
eryone to share pamphlets
and project posters with three
friends each, in an effort to
spread the word about the
play structure, which is sched-
uled to be constructed by
community volunteers over a
fi ve-day period.
Strean said he and Alex Es-
trada approached the pit bull
from opposite directions in an
attempt to grab it and save the
maltese.
“I was desperate to fi nd
something big to hit him
with,” Strean said. “I broke
some bamboo poles over his
head, but it didn’t phase him.
He moved around the yard
with the other dog in his
mouth.”
Strean said the little dog
somehow got away.
“I called 9-1-1 and we
were trying to hold the dog in
the backyard until the police
came, but this dog got away,”
Strean said.
Strean said the Maltese had
to be put down the next day
due to the injuries, while Lim
had injuries to her face and 17
stitches on her arm due to the
pit bull biting clean through.
In addition, the pit bull bit
clear through Estrada’s thumb.
Three offi cers with the
Keizer Police Department re-
sponded and looked for the
pit bull, but were unable to
fi nd it.
According to offi cer An-
drew Phelps’ report, Estrada
noted a brown bulldog was
running along with the pit
bull, but did not attack anyone
or get aggressive. The report
noted both dogs were seen
running south into a fi eld.
Offi cers contacted a farmer
in the fi eld on a tractor, who
reported seeing two dogs run
south out of his fi eld and a
short time later saw a man in
a silver Subaru looking for the
dogs.
According to the report,
there were no additional calls
about the pit bull the rest of
the day and no further action
is being taken due to no leads.
Jeff Kuhns, deputy police
chief with the KPD, has advice
for dog owners.
“They should know that
it’s a violation to allow a dog
to run at large such as the two
dogs that were said to be run-
ning at large when this inci-
dent occurred,” Kuhns said.
Those with information
can contact the KPD at 503-
390-3713.
Strean said the sights and
sounds from last weekend will
be hard to forget.
“You should have heard the
screams (by Lim),” he said. “It
was horrible. It was ugly.”
Strean emphasized he’s a
dog lover who has had dogs
most of his life and is currently
looking to adopt one.
“I want this dog caught
and found so (it’s owner) can
be found responsible,” Strean
said. “You have expensive
doctor bills, plus this lady lost
her little dog. I think the guy’s
got some explaining to do.
This dog has to be euthanized.
If that was my dog, I would
say that needs to be done. This
dog was crazy and will do it
again if it gets a chance. I want
to do everything I can to fi nd
the dog so the owner will be
held responsible. If they don’t
catch this dog, very likely this
will happen again.”
