If your dog needs to chase wildlife in the woods, I would recommend you stop bringing it into a city. Learn to follow the laws or GTFO

Agree. PP apparently has 40 year of dogs that aren't trained to behave in a city environment and expects everyone to oooh and aaaaah over that sad accomplishment. Uh, I moved to the city from a rural area where my dog was off leash constantly, chasing wildlife being his main source of exercise. My dog adjusted and his life is none the worse for the change. You ain't in farm country, PP, get your dog(s) on a leash.

Are you sure they are dogs?

It's a National Park, pal, where off-leash dogs are ILLEGAL. Got it?

And if someone gives them lip, they are more than happy to make an arrest.

Please call 911 or the park police immediately when you see this. It is illegal for a reason.

Yep, and in DC there are PLENTY of off leash dog parks people can use. Anyone who thinks their dog is ok off leash should obviously be able to bring them to a dog park since these off leash dogs should be dog and people friendly and apparently, according to their owners, need lots of exercise, which playing with other dogs would provide.

No need to go off leash in areas it isn't allowed.

Someone needs to get laid.

A bunch of people have to call and complain. It's a national park that means no dogs off leash.

One dog even lunged at my two year old when we were not with our dogs... Is attacking kids ok too? Children also need the woods, the outdoors and to run free.

I'm sorry you're poor. It must be difficult for you, to witness all the changes going on around your little brick SS rambler as this area just gets wealthier every year.

Affluent professional moving in all around you, reminding you of what you don't have /can't buy. And the worst of it? those successful professional women twats! who outearn you 5 to 1. Their law-abiding habits are just the last straw, huh?

NP here. Fascinating how dirty you fight. What is it like to work with you or be married to you? Serious question, since it is anonymous. Do you ever say things you regret in real life? You should do an AMA!

OP here. I do avoid the areas near water where I know there are often unleashed dogs swimming. And in general I am fine with well trained unleashed dogs... When the owners hold or leash them when asked. Not all children and legally leashed dogs are ok with being approached by strange dogs... It's when the entitled owner refuses to watch/hold/leash dog when kindly asked that I find offensive/dangerous/illegal. I'd rather not report anyone but there are real arses out there.

The woods are public and should be safe for everyone.

What's the general rule on this? I was at a playground the other day. A woman had her two dogs unleashed and thy started chasing my (terrified) child who was screaming stop and crying. The owner just watched. I asked her to please leash her dogs and she acted like this was a completely out of line request. Perhaps I'm in the wrong? I mean it's a park with an open playground (not gated). This post and replies made me wonder if I was wrong and just shouldn't return.

What an ass. Call 911 on this ass. If the dog is off leash and the owner won't restrain the animal, call 911. Done.

You were NOT wrong, you just ran into a self centered asswipe of a human being. Dogs should not be anywhere on a playground and a dog chasing little children should be removed from the park immediately.
