Washington DC needs places for dogs to run off leash

Assuming you all live in the city, getting “attacked” (or whatever you people think is happening to you), is so low risk. You have a better chance getting hit by a car, attacked by human, or attacked by a demented rat that MOST of the dogs that you see off leash (not all, obviously).

I agree with OP, this makes me want to walk my
Dog off leash more just to annoy you all off. All 15 pounds of her! Watch out, she make lick your leg!

You are responsible for keeping her filthy mouth off of other people.

I have to laugh at how miserable most of you are. Get a life and relax a little!

This right here.

There's a reason why rescues and shelters transfer smaller breeds to cities and larger breeds to suburbs.

Keep your dogs off the playground. Children need to play and roam freely without dogs’ pee and poop leftovers.

People who must bring their dogs everywhere are usually the most boring people I know. It's like the dog is a security blanket because it gives them something to talk about. Its also so attention seeking. Look at me and my pit bull mix! I'm such a rebel!

Each time I hear "furbaby" I immediately conclude the person is a loser.

Nope. DC needs to arrest all the rogue dirt bikers and teenage car jackers.

More parks would be nice but it's not a need.

I fully agree with this statement. Dogs should NOT be on a playground. I would be very annoyed if I saw a dog roaming around a playground where young children are. In an open grass area? Of course dogs should be able to play as well.

It's so funny to see how worked up people get over dogs. We have a city with a dramatic increase in criminal activity, and people are in an uproar because there may be dog poop on a public grass area. GTFO and go back to your dingy basements.

It's not actually a choice between tolerating criminal activity or tolerating dog crap. I'm upset about both, but this thread was started by an entitled dog owner so the conversation flowed naturally in that direction. In fact, it flowed like the river of urine when some assholes filthy fur baby lifts its leg over a dedicated gardener's meticulously tended flower bed. Or like the smelly saliva from a filthy fur baby's snout when it's shoved into a member of the public just trying to pass on narrow sidewalk. Clearly, we can't have nice things.
