I agree with the new laws and I'm happy they are not breed specific. I walk my leashed dog frequently and we have been aggressively approached by all breeds of dogs not contained on private property and by dogs unleashed with their owners on the walking paths.

This is a good law but will it be enforced ? Daily I walk my dog and have called the police three times about dogs off the leash. One time we were terrorized by a Pitt bull (this has happened with other breeds also so I am not just singling this breed out) and a young woman helped us and gave us a ride home. Each time I called,it took animal control a minimum of 15 minutes to arrive. My question is :Why don''t they send a squad while waiting for the animal control officer who may be on a call on the other side of the village ? If that young woman had not helped me,I and my dog may have been seriously injured while waiting. The dogs were gone before the animal control arrived. Will it take an attack resulting in death before this is taken as a real police emergency?? In the time it takes them to arrive that very well could happen.

I agree with the leash law, this is a safety issue. I disagree with the limit on how many pets I can have in my home. This is supposed to be a free country. Why is the government controlling what I have in the privacy of my home? Do we know why they felt they had to do this?

2 dogs and 1 cat? When was anyone attacked by a killer cat?
