Police Dog Stabbing, Street Vendors Push Back, and Where Nevadans Move

View all City Cast Las Vegas episodes

Las Vegans are sharing an outpouring of support for Enzo, the police dog who was stabbed in a recent encounter downtown. Happily, he is on the road to recovery and heading home. But what really went down in that encounter, and how should we be thinking about the use of K-9 units with mentally unstable people? Today, co-hosts Dayvid Figler and Sarah Lohman sit down with comedian-magician Matt Donnelly from the podcast Matt and Mattingly’s Ice Cream Social to discuss. Next, they tackle the new street vendor regulations, which advocates say are too strict and onerous for the vendors. And lastly, a new report lists the top states where departing Nevadans move. So of the top three, we play a PG version of FMK: Who would you wine, dine, or ditch?

Interested in adopting Smokey, the 29-pound cat we mention at the end of the episode? Email foster@animalfoundation.com with his name and ID # (A1311271) to arrange a time for a meet & greet with his foster family.
