It seems that most dog owners have not been "trained" on how to take care of their pets. Many have problems figuring out which food to feed the animals and when to feed them, let alone how to manage/control them. If these folks can't be taught to use turn signals and stop at stop signs in their golf carts, how can you expect them to do something complicated like caring for a dog? Yes, a dog can be trained to relieve itself in designated spots, but it seems that dogs train their owners rather than their owners training them. It would be interesting to find out how many of Villagers have owned pets before or are just now obtaining pets in their twilight years. Like dogs, their owners do not consider it disrespectful or inconsiderate to disregard boundaries.
