Re: Owners shouldn't walk their dogs at the cemetery, letter to the editor, Dec. 9
Bart Mann's complaint is well taken, but easily explained. The reason is simple: all dog owners are illiterate and cannot read.
I have yet to visit any park in the Lower Mainland and not see dogs off-leash in spite of signs clearly stating that dogs are required to be on-leash at all times.
I have witnessed on more than one occasion in Boundary Bay Regional Park ladies unleashing their dogs directly beneath a large sign stating that dogs must be on a leash.
Dog owners display an alarming sense of arrogance as they blatantly ignore the law and common sense.
