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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

No, that's too big a generalization. However, those owners should never let their pet off-leash in those areas.

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

Whatever it takes. I'll support federal law enforcement efforts to clean up CoMo's crime problem as well.

Inappropriate use of our talented national guard personnel. Local trouble is what we have local police for. Zaos, what if this was the zeitgeist when your ancestors arrived in this great land?

They are incompetent and don't need to stir the pot. They and ICE need to leave us alone. I'm tired of chaos and tired of us blaming the immigrants, when in reality, it's our fault for the slow process.

We should not be using military personnel on US soil unless ABSOLUTELY necessary (uncontrollable rioting, etc) This is about politics, not safety.

Do we really need the national guard to protect federal agents? This is a blatant abuse of American resources to support a xenophobic crackdown of our communities.

Saying inflation is getting lower is like saying that government is getting less corrupt. LOL

No matter what MSM says, I will use my open eyes, and common sense to determine items of this nature. Inflation will not get better until we have a different leader for our country. The last four years have been horrible for America, and our allies.

The damage is done. Even if it went to zero, prices are still 20-30% higher since 2021.

Just look at the prices at the store. That should be enough to tell you that nothing has changed and won't till Harris and Biden gets out of there . Trump will lower everything. Trump has done more for the Hurricane victims then Biden and Harris has.
