[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there something in the air? Why so much violence? JFC. Live and let live. [b]Unofficial dog runs are not the place for kids or reactive dogs (even leashed)[/b], busy parks and areas near playgrounds are not the place to unleashed or reactive/not-so-friendly dogs. 
Easy-peasy to avoid confrontation and broken jaws by simply being aware of the surroundings.

I do let my dog run in the part of the park off the beaten path, I could walk for an hour there and not meet a single person, let alone kids. But when I walk near playgrounds/school/small park in the middle of the neighborhood - dog is leashed obviously. [/quote]

Incorrect.

There is no such thing as an "unofficial dog park". It's just the park, and the park 100% is for kids, and leashed dogs (reactive or otherwise; how do you think they magically stop being reactive without practice?  :roll: ). Sometimes, there may be authorized off-leash hours, and even during those hours, you are expected to keep your dog away from other park users, their dogs, traffic, etc.

Near playgrounds is not the place for dogs. Period. No matter how "friendly", and even if leashed. Some kids are scared of dogs, and the playground is for them, not your dog.

Easy-peasy to avoid problems by being aware of the laws, and exercising some simple common sense that, apparently, isn't so common anymore. [/quote]
Who said I'm not aware of the law? 
I do understand that people with kids have rights to get into "unofficial dog run" area of the park, but should they have common sense and not put their kids into situation when they have to see their parent breaking dogs jaw??? 
I'd rather be safe then right, apparently that's not a common sense anymore. People prefer to be right even puting their own kids in danger. [/quote]

YOU are the one putting the kids in danger by allowing your dog to be unleashed.[/quote]
Nope. Other people's kids are not my responsibility, they have their parents/guardians for that [/quote]

Your responsibility is to follow the law and keep your dog leashed.[/quote]
So, you're trying to put responsibility for the safety of your kids on others? I guess you're prefer to be right rather then safe. 
Common sense is not so common this days....[/quote]

As I said, your responsibility is to follow the law and keep your dog leashed.[/quote]
You don't have the right to decide what my responsibilities are. [/quote]
