66. I am against dogs attacking and barking at people

Sun Sep 9, 2018, 09:53 AM

Sep 2018

train the dogs please
threating to shot them is also wrong and he should be denies a gun carry permit
I am a cyclist and have been attacked and chased many many times over the years and don't appriciate it
the small brainless dogs are the worst because you never know if they will bite.
Last week I was nearly biten on a public path.
I refuse to be sport for untrained animals.
