I've noticed lately that there seems to be fewer issues with the dogs running and people are controlling them better. Tiffanie is correct that I've not been at a park cleanup in a few years so I should get out there (maybe when it warms up) things are improving!

That would be a better place to have a dialogue then posting this site encouraging an ‘illegal’ activity". The short term goal of our website is to create better communication to the dog owners regarding issues/concerns/activities of Cianfrani Park. Long terms goals are to have more city-wide, dog-related activities and information available. Nowhere on the website is 'illegal' activity encouraged, to suggest otherwise is ludicrous. People who post to the blog may do so of their own free will and opinion. As long as people are relatively polite and articulate I do not censor postings. I am actively involved with the park. I have met with the Friends of Cianfrani(in person) to talk about important park issues and to help foster a better relationship between dog owners and non-dog owners. I do this on behalf of the dog owner community. If you would like to participate and help create a culture of better understanding I am available to meet in person to engage in open dialogue. Evenings work best for me and you have my email. Or perhaps I will see you at the next park clean-up! Cheers- Tiffanie Hi Aaron –

I wouldn't call the dog owners rude nor suggest the park is overridden by dogs either. They are harsh words and you are using them to make an exaggerated point. Stick to the truth, your point is "weak" when you make false accusations. P.S. I wouldn’t call the dog owners rude nor suggest the park is overridden by dogs either.

There are millions of sites set up for all sorts of causes, this one happens to be set-up for locals that need to voice their opinions concerning a law they feel is fair and unjust. I'm sure you've visited sites that have supported a cause that may be important to you but not important to others. We have the right to voice our opinion just as much as you feel you have the right to suggest we engage in a different dialogue. If you disagree with the website then simply don't visit it.

I was about 50 steps away when the dog started charging towards me, past me, and directly into the street. Luckily the dog owner was able to catch it and usher it back to the sidewalk, but it could easily could have been a disaster. With heavily trafficed (albeit generally low-speed) streets and small sidewalks, unleashed dogs might not only be scary for kids but also dangerous for the dogs.
