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.
Do you have a dog?


Walking dogs is not playing with them; it is giving them exercise. Playing with them is different and usually occurs at a dog park or in a yard or even in the house.
