SOLERA DIAMOND VALLEY | SEPTEMBER 2021 5 By Teri Collett A few friendly community reminders this month, the following concerns have been brought to Management's attention and I felt it fair to share amongst the community: • Please be sure to carry the proper disposal bags to clean up after your dogs both on the Paseo and throughout the neighborhood. The association has provided a few pet waste stations throughout the community for your convenience. • When submitting a Home Improvement Application please be sure to read the application and relevant Design Guidelines carefully. Be sure to include the required attachments to the application, i.e.; plot plan, photos, materials, measurements and a full description of the proposed improvements. The DRC cannot approve incomplete applications. • In case of a crime or vandalism please report all incidents to the Hemet Police Department. Management cannot make reports or requests on behalf of the residents. All suspicious activity should be reported to the Hemet non-emergency line at (951) 765-2400. It has been reported that this can bring more patrols to the community as well as keep a record of any concerns that residents might have. Property Management Report By Cindy Ponce de Leon, Resident Prior to moving here we had a tall raised garden bed that was perfect for not having to stoop over. Now our garden is 10 inches wide and consists of the space between our sidewalks and shared fences. The first year I grew yellow grape tomatoes I noticed my Chihuahua Katie would stand in front of the plant, stick her whole head in, and take deep breaths when the tomatoes were starting to mature. I'd find a tomato or two on her bed with a bite missing. I thought, "Do dogs eat tomatoes?" I googled it and of course, they do! Katie had never had the opportunity to taste or appreciate the tomatoes the way she can now that they are at her height. Living in Hemet our dogs enjoy daily walks in the field. This spring our male Jack was attracted to a green "weed" with tiny yellow flowers that was growing along the paths. This plant was so irresistible that he took a bite out of every one he encountered. Last night my husband and I were enjoying the sunset on the patio. Jack walked up to my beautiful three foot tall zinnias and took a few bites! I had to google it! "Can dogs eat Zinnias?" Indeed they do. I compiled a list of other plants that dogs can eat just in case you find a few bites missing from your garden! Camellias, Coral Bells, Creeping Thyme, Dill, Fennel, Fuchsias, Marigolds, Magnolia Bushes, Nasturtium, Petunias, Polka Dot Plant, Purple Basil, Rosemary, Snapdragons, and Sunflowers. If you have a cat and not a dog, cat-safe plants include Bamboo, Lavender, Roses, Snapdragon, Sunflowers and Violets. These herbs are also thought to have a positive effect on your cat's health if eaten, Basil, Dill, Mint, Parsley, Rosemary, Sage and Tarragon. Can Dogs Eat Zinnias? Donut Social
