[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure glad I don't live in DC anymore! I live in Austin now, and most of the major park areas are legally off leash, including a lovely large open park not far from the downtown area, Zilker Park. Even in the areas that are technically on leash areas, there are a lot of places where leash laws are not followed or enforced. Interestingly, I've rarely witnessed any issues (maybe the occasional food begging if someone is having a picnic, that's about it)--even though there are plenty of hipsters with their rescue pitbulls/GSDs/Doberman/insert aggressive breed here in off leash areas. People usually socialize their dogs, and people with crippling dog fears don't go out in public, I guess. In this large, central, off leash area, people play soccer games, toddlers and kids run around without fear of being mauled, and people have picnics even when there are off leash dogs around. Why are people in DC so freaking uptight?[/quote]
