[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need a massive reform on dog ownership in this country. So many of y'all are so entitled and nuts.

What would dog ownership reform entail? There are already laws requiring leashes but agree that enforcement and penalties are needed.

No, people who love their dogs enjoy exercising their dogs unencumbered. They have zero interest in any leash law. They also generate the lion’s share of donations to AWLA.

The AWLA-employed animal welfare officer doesn’t want people flouting the leash law, as dumb as this law is. But he wasn’t going to issue a citation. The dog owner should have blown off the AWLA officer, then called AWLA HQ to complain. By implying he has a gun he muddied the waters when he was on solid ground given the zero chance any citation would be issued.[/quote]
