Sad, what a sterile place. Do you all have to walk in line?

How are dogs supposed to play with each other while on leash?

As a dog owner who visits this park regularly with friends, I fully support changing the ordinance and allowing our dogs to play responsibly.

It seems to me that at least 80+ percent of the users of Victor Jones Park are people walking, exercizing, and socializing dogs. I understand that we need to protect everyone in the park from the irresponsible owner with the clearly problematic dog, but I have never seen one of these in the 20-some years I have lived across the street from the park. This regulation is excessive, unrealistic, and as effective as prohibition laws were back in the 1920's. The question goes begging: where else can a dog owner take a dog to chase a ball, run free, and socialize if not in a park? It particularly troubles me that we are allocating our animal control officer's time to sneak around and cite people with fines simply for having a dog off leash, and not because they have received a specific complaint.

A good dog is a tired dog. Dogs also interact with each other much better off leash than on. It is important socialization for them.
Great point. We have 2 rescue dogs, and our young (huge) pup needs a ton of exercise. VJP is his favorite place. And YES…we all need to be responsible dog owners. I think the enforcement by MHS is due to someone NOT being responsible and that person's dog jumped on someone (so I hear). Such actions seem to have ruined it for the rest of us.

All it takes is a handful of mis-behaving dogs and MHS will squash any freedoms gained. So - it's up to us to self regulate and truly be responsible owners.

Rocket needs a safe place to run FREE cuz she has a lot of energy to burn. Walks alone aren't enough. She needs to socialize too!
