Also, dogs don't belong at the Squares when the bands are playing. This is incredibly cruel to the dog. A dog's hearing is around four times greater than ours. Imagine going to the square with hearing aides turned up to full blast, and standing right in front of the speaker, which is also turned up at full blast. Now imagine being tethered around the neck so you -cannot- leave that spot.
That's what you do to your dog when you bring him to the square to see Rocky and the Rollers.
"Oh but he just loves it!" you say, because the dog is chill and sits there and doesn't misbehave. No - he doesn't love it. He's overwhelmed. You're also damaging his hearing with that exposure - especially those of you who bring your dogs to the squares every week or even more often. You are DEsensitizing your dog by causing damage to his hearing.
