Default Dogs Gone Wild

I noticed a lot of owners are brining their dogs to Brownwood square at night for the entertainment. With that comes dog waste - I had witnesses this twice in the last week. Like smoking - I wonder if the rules can be modified for the health, safety and enjoyment of everyone that dogs are not allowed inside the square when entertainment is scheduled?

I doubt that would ever happen. This is a dog friendly community.

Why not ban drinking?

Let's ban coolers.

How about banning non-residents?

Children under 25?

How about banning people over 80 or those with wheelchairs, walkers & mobility issues?

I'd be all in favor of banning line dancing and women of stout proportions, wearing spandex, lycra or yoga pants.

Why not just ban having more than 750 people in the squares at any one time and see if we can put everyone out of business.

It would probably be best to develop a dog square for all dog owners to use and enjoy and spare the other squares, a win-win for everyone!

What an interesting response to that other post. Yes, very interesting, indeed. 👳👮👮

Not sure the dogs get enjoyment from the loud noises, lights, confusion, etc. Sensory overload is bad and the dogs really would be better off at home. Being truly dog/pet friendly means knowing when to give them a peaceful night at home rather than dragging them into the middle of something they don't understand or appreciate. It is not good for them.

None of my dogs have tolerated that kind of noise.

I have taken each to the Square when fairly empty.

Ahhhh .... a Dog Whisperer.

Perhaps we should leave anyone under 65 at home, too. I'm sure they're equally confused and can't appreciate music that's mired in the 1950's - 1960's.

Are you interested in a Medicare Advantage Plan?

Agree. I believe it is called a dog park.
