The responsible dog owners of this community got the shaft as far as this park is concerned

Not sure I'd agree. As a dog owner, and someone who took the time to look over the renovation plans when the city brought them to the neighborhood's attention and having voiced concerns then and voted on the designs, I'm quite happy we have dog runs now and pet-free/friendly zones.

I'm happy to have half the park pet-free so that I can sit in the grass without my dog and not worry about sitting in other people's pet's waste.

I'm also happy that there is half the park where I can sit with my dog should I choose.

Why do some people insist that they be allowed to do whatever they want wherever? Part of being in a community is being respectful of everyone and compromising.

It's funny that a voice of complete sanity like ayeceed is probably a sock puppet of someone who didn't want their neighbors to know how rational they are.

I don't understand how folks who have read this whole thread can be shocked that some people are doing whatever they want with their dogs regardless of law and decency. They've said it all along.
