I was looking at this site and just thinking to myself about it when I thought of this idea that would explain why so many dogs are around and why wild canines would be so close by a town. I guess it could be added to the site's story or be used in the future for a plot. Or neither because it might actually be terrible and I should stop trying.
Maybe there is/was some sort of epidemic going around whether it was a virus that could be caught by humans or faulty breeding caused the majority of dog litters to have issues that made them aggressive to humans or something like that. The response to this was that almost all the large cities US banned large dogs (and some dogs altogether) as pets and concluded them to be "dangerous animals". Of course, dog lovers protested this, and the solution was small towns like Shorebridge would be founded on the other side of nature reserves (where the wild canines come to play) and are isolated from the city where they can continue to live their lives with pet dogs. Shorebridge could be one of the oldest.
If it is something in the past, then Shorebridge has always had all these dogs. Maybe the ban was lifted, but the towns decided they liked their lifestyles and are still thriving. It could be like part of the foundation history. If it is the present-ish, then it could be a site wide event. Maybe the some of the dogs who were there since the founding of Shorebridge/born there/have been there for a while will have a problem with the new surplus of city dogs that move in, or something like that.
