My plans will not change. What will change is trying to limit my exposure to the Media Hysteria over this new variant.

Scott Freshwaters

I will not succumb to the fear mongering by the media, Fauci, and big pharma! Give me Liberty or give me death!

Robert Northrup

Glad to here you are the side of common sense.

Ricky Whitehead

I am not concerned about the new strain and it will not change our family plans for the holidays.

Sussie Due

Its all over the news that its a mild virus that causes a mild cough and aches for a couple day. Im not worried about that at all.

Jer W

I'm not going to live in fear of every new virus that develops.

Robert Northrup

We will all probably get COVID sooner or later. 45,545 fully vaccinated people have tested positive for COVID to date in Oregon. Omicron is even more contagious than Delta. I plan to be careful but if I get COVID so what? I will die or I won't.

Gabe West

My family.doesnt live in fear we live by faith and plus the covid variant is a mild case don't listen to the left wing media!

Rick Allen

NO! Not in any way shape or form! I live by faith not by fear! So tired if the hype and fear mongers, the chicken little's of the world, the sky is falling, the sky is falling. Trust in the Lord and he shall make thy ways straight.

Tim Collins

I think if managed properly by the Super. The budgets are workable with fewer employees multi tasking and wearing more than one hat!Any buisness can benefit with improved efficiency!!

Is someone who lets their pet off-leash in restricted areas considered a 'bad pet owner?'

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

robert weber

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

Kati Magana

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

Kim Ritchie

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

Ann Thomas

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

Deborah Albright

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

Nic Secor

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

Payton Dixson

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

robert weber

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
