Boulevard. A 64-year-old chiropractor, McGeehan of Land O' Lakes, was putting on a knee brace when he said he was attacked by a large dog, according to Pasco County Sheriff's Office records. He told the sheriff's office that he had a run-in with the same dog about a week earlier. The wellfield park is near Pine View elementary and middle schools. McGeehan told the sheriff's office that he grabbed a machete and hunting knife from his vehicle and swung at the dog to keep it away, but more dogs came at him, records said.
