I love dogs and exercise my dog everywhere. I don't feel I need to take mine to a National Park to enhance my dog's experience. So what is the difference? Fly the Drone or Walk the dog? There are people making sure my next visit to a National Park is enjoyable and without noise and a person trying to get a chipmunk out of pup's jaws.
