ASSOCIATED PRESS 
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - Complaints about aggressive dogs are prompting 
greater scrutiny of a popular north Lake Tahoe beach. 
The attention from local officials comes after an Incline Village woman 
claimed she and her dog were attacked by a Rottweiler on a Dec. 16 visit to Ski 
Beach. 
"According to the woman, the incident resulted in her suffering an injury 
that required 15 stitches," said Bill Horn, general manager of the Incline 
Village General Improvement District. 
Horn said he prefers to keep the beach open to the public but that his staff 
now will closely monitor the situation. 
Resident Erin Field urged the district to patrol the beach during busy times, 
saying the posting of warning signs would not solve the problem.
