I see people walking their dogs and picking up what they leave behind, but I never see people really having fun with their dogs.

Maybe we should have some neighborhoods where all dogs are prohibited (sign us up) and others where well-trained dogs are allowed to run freely, like they did when I was a kid.
My dogs are totally happy. Wehave a large yard with a pool and bird cage. They have plenty of recreation. We take them for long walks several times a day.
