Most people know an individual that has owned a dog that was hit by a car. Maybe your own dog has been hit by a car in the past. Some of you may know that I sit on the vicious dog hearing board, in the city. It only takes one incident (often an accident) for a dog to wind up on the wrong side of the table at these hearings, and ALL of these dogs are somebody’s pet. In all of the above examples, a leash can prevent tragedy.

So, you need to get your dog out to RUN, and you want your dog to run free. . .because he needs it! Where do you go? If your dog is social with other dogs, you can visit any variety of our local dog parks. There’s a list of them, below. If your dog is more socially selective, it may be best to find a friend with a private field that is willing to let you use it. Have fun, and play safe!
