I have seen a lot of letters in the Globe recently about dogs.
I am a dog owner and don't have to have my dog on a lead unless my dog gets pestered by others.
You see so much when walking your dog and I do agree with some of the letters it is because some dog owners and dog walkers let the dogs do what they like.
Most people pick up after them.
A lot don’t.
Why pick it up and leave the poop bag on the beach or in the greenery?
The worst dog owners / walkers are the ones that have dogs who are aggressive or a pest and don’t have them on a lead.
If people confront them they get aggressive and abusive behaviour back.
So if dogs are likely to cause upset and stress to other people then get them on a lead and think of others and not yourself.
