Sorry but i have to vent

This just makes me soooooo angry. :evil: :evil: :evil: My kids and I walk the dogs in a local state park. There is a nice swimming pool, picnic area etc. Well this time we were walking the dogs someone had tied their pit bull to a tree by their picnic table and was nowhere to be seen. For one thing I totally disagree with tying a dog to a tree PERIOD or tying it anywhere for that matter. The second thing is I feel it is so irresponsible to leave a dog where little children are playing etc and to not be watching it. The little play area with swings was close by. OMG what if it would get loose??? IT started barking and pulling on the rope when we walked by. He could have broken loose!!!!! I am terrified of pit bulls. I know there are some nice ones but what I hear in the news WHAT IS WRONG with people????? TO me this was just total irresponsible and stupid

Sorry just had to vent!!!!! Hubby is tired of hearing about it!!!!

I agree with you.

Whatever the breed, it was highly irresponsible of the dog's owners to leave the dog unattended in a public spot. Especially where children will be present. Stupid people. :evil:

Behavior like this is how dogs get banned from public places. :evil:
In many communities, it's a violation of local ordinance to leave animals unattended in public spaces, even tethered.

Find out if that's the case in your area. Then if you see it again, call animal control.

Owners like that need a harsh lesson. If it hits them in their pocketbook with a fine, so be it.
How sad for the dog and how scarey for you
Are you sure someone didn't just intentionally dump him there with no intention of coming back?

Me 3!
I agree with you, but is it possible they went to the potty? :roll:

Parks usually have one somewhere. I just wondered if there was one nearby...........

Still not a good idea to leave the dog unattended, but if nature calls??? :lol:
Good points. I never thought about the dog being dropped off though. The dog was tied to a tree near a picnic table full of picnic things, so my thought was it was their dog. I Just assumed they were swimming in the pool because of how things looked.

I was more concerned about getting our dogs away from the area because of the way the dog was jumping and pulling on his rope. Of course mr mouth (Beau) had to bark back. Cheyenne just kept on walking and ignoring everything. GOod girl
