Love Leash Laws

Greetings! Leash your dog. It’s the law. I am a longtime friends of canines. It’s for that reason I understand leash laws to benefit the individual animals. So many folks ignore the leash law. They suggest their dogs are docile, don’t often stray or don’t like leashes. However, the thing they fail to consider is other people. Many people are afraid of dogs. Many people have allergies to dogs. Also there are smells that dogs may encounter while out and encourage then to go astray, maybe run into the street and get hit by person driving a car. Then, of course, there are other dog encounters which might lead to a fight. In fact, this happens with great frequency, and that is why I am sharing this post on my blog from dog loving friends.

For the over 20 years I have been running and I have encountered dogs around the world.  I have come face to face irritated stray dogs, unleashed dogs and dogs that were on their property without a fence. I am fortunate to have an unnatural relationship with dogs and each of the encounters went well. This includes running into wild dogs in the pitch black of night in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. Others are not so lucky. Everyday due to people ignoring leash laws dogs and humans get injured. This can all be avoided if people will simply lease their dog.

Enough of the soap box.

Love your dog. Leash it.
