[quote=Anonymous]How is it “hypocritical and biased” that Rosedale wants to cover its costs and manage a long waiting list for dogs? An earlier poster wrote that it costs Rosedale $80K annually to maintain the park. Dogs create a lot of wear and tear, and the membership and dog fees help to pay for the impact. It’s sad, the whiny sense of entitlement of those dog owners who expect to just walk in and let their dogs roam free, for free. Rosedale is not out of line here. Congressional Cemetery, which allows a limited number of off-leash registered dogs, has a much longer dog waiting list and higher fees. See below: “K9 Corps membership is a privilege, not a right, and is maintained through an active relationship between dog owners and the cemetery. Members are required to submit a volunteer registration fee of $250 OR a non-volunteer registration fee of $340 with a $50 fee per dog (up to three dogs per family) annually.”[/quote]
