[Vision2020] Parks and Dogs

[Donovan Arnold]

Wayne pleads,
 
"please do not bring dogs on Moscow Mountain to run loose uncontrolled. This creates unpleasant problems for residents and other Moscow Mountain users including wildlife and wildfowl especially turkeys who are now nesting. In a few weeks deer, elk, moose, bear, etc will start to had babies."
 
Yes, please let the deer, elk, and turkeys be hunted down, shot, and eaten in peace.

Not to be a wet blanket, but please do not bring dogs on Moscow Mountain to run loose uncontrolled.  This creates unpleasant problems for residents and other Moscow Mountain users including wildlife and wildfowl especially turkeys who are now nesting.  In a few weeks deer, elk, moose, bear, etc will start to had babies.

THe most I've encountered has been 6 or 7 dogs.  If it as crowded as the author feels, perhaps the city should look at adding another dog park.

View Road--a few blocks from the Safeway. This is a favorite place for Akadia to play, as he is an 80lb black lab who needs to be able to run freely to get the exercise he needs. Shockingly we were approached by a city employee and told that I had to leash the dog. She told me I can play ball at the dog park.

I have witnessed dozens and dozens of other people using the same park to exercise their dog off-leash. The dog park is a tiny fenced in area overcrowded with dogs and people and I refuse to take my dog there. Where can I take my dog on a Saturday morning at 8am to play ball? Is there a park in this town where dogs can be off-leash? I have been chased out of East City Park and now I have been chased out of the big ball park on Mt. View.
