Two Take Dogs For A Dip, Prompt Police Response

May 7, 2013 3:25 p.m.

Overcast skies and cooler-than-usual temperatures apparently didn’t stop two people and their dogs from taking over a community pool in Potomac on Monday.

Just before 3 p.m., a resident called the Montgomery County Police claiming two people and two dogs – a chocolate lab and a golden retriever – had found their way into the pool at the River Falls Community Center at Horseshoe Lane and Brickyard Road.

One problem: Like most community pools, River Falls doesn’t open until Memorial Day.

Officer Rebecca Innocenti, a police spokesperson, said by the time officers arrived on Monday, the supposed swimmers and their four-pawed friends weren’t there.
