Dog parks are not located in residential areas and cannot be reached by everyone, in particular non-drivers. As a pet owner, I propose that the government gives us the right to use a small percentage of the public gardens in each locality. Most towns already have a decent number of public gardens, so why not make 1 or 2 of them open to pets as well? Allowing our pets to roam freely would make a huge difference in contrast to having to walk on a tight leash on narrow pavements and busy roads.
I am all for it. I pay taxes and want to use these gardens to take my dog for a decent outing. After all some of these places are not always full of children especially in the early morning and during school hours.
