My personal rant is regarding those stupid extended leashes, push a button and Fido now has 30' of a leash to exploit. Virtually every campground I have ever visited requires that dogs be on a 6' leash and these DO NOT qualify.:C
Almost every county and city in California has that law and yet the chances of being sited or being required to stop using one of the extendable leashes are as good as Donald Trump being elected to anything by Californians. Don't dog owners know that they are dangerous to everyone involved in their use?
I too love dogs and I try to show good manners around dogs, I always ask permission before I approach one and I try to kneel down so I am not so impossing, yet owners seldom show the courtesy of following the leash laws.
I would be less popular than a pork chop vendor in Mecca if I attempted to enforce our 6 foot leash rule when people are using the retractable leashes. Never going to happen.
