[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's been a discussion on this recently on the AU Park listserve.  [b]A poor toddler was bitten in the face in a neighborhood park. [/b]

It is NOT okay for a dog (any dog) to be off a leash except in marked areas.

The local police apparently advise taking a video and calling them.

Personally, I would say something to the dog owner.  I hope everyone else does the same.  They need to know that they are breaking the law, and there are no exceptions.[/quote]

:shock: I hope the owner will face some serious charges.[/quote]

But nothing will ever be enough for that poor toddler or the parents of that poor toddler. [/quote]

I have been walking my dogs on a leash many time and small children have coming running up to them in the park.  I wonder where the hell the parents are because although I have them on a leash, I can't hold the leashes and grab the kids at the same time.  For the love of God, teach your children how to act around dogs instead of complaining about the dogs.  Instead of getting hysterical about dogs, do something to educate your kids!

Have you ever tried to reason with a toddler?   Sometimes kids move quicker than parents which is why leashes are so important. [/quote]
