[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love dogs, and I agree that at the door pickup isn’t the time or place [/quote] +1 This is why people Hate dog owners (and I am one)[/quote] +2 I have a dog and our school is five blocks from our house and one block from an awesome dog park and I would LOVE to bring him to pickup so I could take him to the dog park after but I don't because there are SO many little kids who are scared of dogs, allergic to dogs, etc. [/quote] +3 I am a huge dog lover and we'd love to get a dog but cannot right now because our preschooler is deathly terrified of them thanks to irresponsible dog owners who take them everywhere and let them roam around and assume small children (who are often smaller than the dog) will always be excited to see/pet/interact with their dog. She had a series of bad experiences (off leash dog bounding up to her on hiking trail, enormous dog on crowded sidewalk barking at her when she tripped and fell, large dog coming up and stealing food from her during picnic in park) and now she's deathly afraid and it sucks. And it all could have been prevented if people just took care of their dogs, trained them, and kept them on leashes when necessary. If you won't do that, don't get a dog, especially not if you live in an urban area with tons of people. It's actually unfair to the dog, too![/quote]
