LndLocked .... You are absolutely correct. Dogs don't have to be leashed on your property, but they do need to be under your control and "confined". For a lot of people, this means leashes or invisible fencing. Dogs need to be well trained not to leave your property, or be supervised, but not necessarily tied. Sorry, I mispoke.
