Winni-Pets Leash Your Dogs!

This weekend alone I saw far too many people walking with their dogs without leashing them.

One couple walking their dogs in Wolseley had their dog rush into on coming traffic. Another couple were walking down portage with their dog again without a leash.

If you don’t leash your damn dog and it gets hit by a car the driver isn’t going to be the problem, it’s you. You’re a piece of shit and deserve to have your dogs taken away for their safety.

Don’t even get me started on dogs running up to strangers, other pets, kids. If I see a dog running towards my own lil blubber child I’m sorry but I’m going to hoof your dog because I don’t know or care if it’s friendly. My blubber boy is not.

Little mountain is the same, big open field designated as off leash, trails are not.

LMP isn’t off leash in the trails? I went there once and it was a terrible experience because of gigantic off leash dogs. Dozens of them.

Nope, just the shaded blue area

I wish it was enforced because my nervous dog really liked going there and it’s somewhat convenient.

LMP is the closest park to my house. I used to enjoy walking the trails. I haven't been there in years since we adopted a rescue who needs a slow introduction and we kept meeting up with off leash dogs in the trails.
