i bet the dogs had covid too |
Not during the game, but someone had their (large) dog running off leash on the (school, turf) field after a scrimmage a few weeks ago. I'm a dog person, but these are the people who ruin things for the rest of us. |
These have to be 2 different teams you two are referring to because these are two different age groups. It used to be blue and orange. It looks like they have added a higher acadamy team that's playing up and possibly made their blue team team 2 and orange team team 3? So blue is no longer the top team? |
But you are being told that people don’t appreciate your dog. This is not a rule of “appropriate standing”, it is the rule. You don’t get to choose whether or not if it is appropriate or not. These rules are put in place not just for the potential behavior of your dog but also the fact that dogs crap and piss where they are when they need to do so and people don’t always bring bags to properly dispose of their waste. People don’t want to walk around dog crap while at a soccer field. |
Not sure what (or who) you are talking about, but I'm the poster who pointed out that leashed dogs are allowed at Fairfax County Parks. I don't take my dog onto the field (inside the fence) at Sully (or anywhere else there is a sign clearly prohibiting dogs). On the walking paths or grassy area outside of the fence at Sully, dogs are fine. That is where my dog and I have watched my kids' games when I've taken him there. I keep my dog leashed and under control at all times. I do not let him interact with anyone without their consent. I prefer when strangers don't interact with him without my consent either (or let their unwatched kids do so). Most dog owners are the same way. It seems like you just don't like dogs. Either that or you are one of those obsessively negative people who focus on the minority of bad things and ignore the majority of good things. Either way I feel sorry for you. This weekend my kid had one game at a school field, one at a county field, and the other at a private venue which does have a no dog policy. So the dog only came to one game. Shockingly, he did not smell anyone's crotch or run onto any fields. He did lick a few hands, but only of people who presented their hands to be licked. He's a cute dog. He thinks everyone in the world exists to be love and be loved, and that's the way he looks at everyone he sees. People smile when they see him. The world needs more smiles. |
If you had authority, sure you could tell me what's in appropriate standing or not; since you don't of course I won't. To ask again, have you ever driven over the speed limit? Jaywalked? Since you have, taking your (hypocrite) opinion about something as a incidental as an unleashed dog would be unreasonable for any of us. But tell you what. People are breaking rules? Call a cop, and see how that goes. |
Look, I'm with you on the unleashed dog in certain settings. If I'm walking in a huge wooded park early in the morning without a soul around, or in the middle of a large field (not athletic field) and I want to play some fetch, AND if I am extremely confident I have trained my dog's recall to be completely reliable no matter what, then I'll take him off leash too. In those situations, it is kind of like doing 10-15 mph over on 66 in light traffic. Yeah, technically it's against the law, but it's really a no harm no foul situation. If the dog warden shows up and wants to write me a ticket, I'll pay the fine. Around an athletic field at a soccer game or tournament is a different situation though. That's more like speeding through a residential neighborhood with kids playing all over the place. |
No need to feel sorry for me or my dog. Your dog may be great. Only now do you clarify and agree that your dog should not be inside fence at Sully. That is the point. Where your dog is allowed do whatever you want. Where your dog is not allowed follow the rule. Rules often have to be made for the worst. If everyone was a good dog or respectful we’d need fewer rules. The rule may bot be necessary for your dog but your dog has to follow it (through your decisions unless your dog can read) because of all the others who have ruined it and caused a rule to be needed. So consider not trying to make it about me or my dog. It’s not about you or your dog. It’s a rule and you either respect it or you don’t. And if you are at a game for your kid you are there as a guest and a parent typically and your team agrees to follow the hosting on clubs rules which include no dogs often. People like you just decide to do what you want until challenged then you react like it is the rest of the rule followers that are the problem. Be a better example for your child and your dog. |
You are obsess with this Samba Boyz, get over it and no I am not associated with the club. |
People already told you that you’re a a$$ you don’t need to prove them right. We get it. Your dog is special and you’re special. The rule doesn’t apply to you because well, you’re special. There is not rule that says I can’t leave dog crap on your car hood either, or if there is I happen to think it isn’t appropriate. |
call a cop

You're a complete dumbass. No matter what you or anyone else tells you, please always remember, you're a dumbass for life. |
Disgusting trash. Take your fake macho bs and small weiner back to whatever hole you crawled out of. |
Mondays and Tuesdays at my kid's elementary were always bad days for outdoor recess because of the amount of dog crap around the playgrounds. Kids step in feces and are stuck with it till they get home. People really can be selfish azzes. |
