[quote=Anonymous]Americans feel so entitled to their individual rights, there’s also this huge cultural trend of being entitled to hold strong boundaries… I think this makes many Americans much less community oriented. So something like dogs, or even kids, that infringe and push those boundaries like space, grass, sound, etc are unliked by many. I think many dog lovers are generally more community minded and open to sharing resources and interacting with others. A few take it too far… it only takes one dog jumping on someone who doesn’t want their body touched ever without their permission, and there’s an issue. In general I’m not such a strong dog lover, but I also don’t think it’s the major infraction that some make it out to be if a dog jumps on you or barks. It happens. It’s called life. Now if your dog is actually physically hurting other people or animals, that’s where I think people should be held more accountable.[/quote]
