If dog owners were more responsible to pick up after Fido when he goes, then this wouldn't be an issue...
That's my point. A permit, log in, something is better than nothing. And we always pick up all the poo we see even if it wasn't our dogs that left it.

Part of it may be that SOME people are afraid of dogs. I love them.... but some HUMANS are terrified of dogs. Some of them might be ones making the rules!

You say that yours are terriers in an earlier post..... they are pit bull terriers. Some people are afraid of them BECAUSE of irresponsibly people that trained them inappropriately.

I know that there has been unfair treatment and I am sure that you don't like Breed Specific Legislation.... and not being able to get Home Owners Insurance from some companies.

HOWEVER, that is life. the GFBL boats don't like being singled out or banned either. It is life and unfortunately it happens to everyone at some point.

I think it would be a better use of time to search for another spot and fall in love with going there and except the situation.

Just my 2 cents
