Dog Parks Benefits

According to one article '' That 37% of americans who own dogs often look for a dog park when choosing for a place to live''. With dog parks everyone would benefit. Without a place to take dogs they may never socialize much and can become aggresive.Though a good point can be made that dog parks can be loud at times. I still believe that dog parks are needed.

Before you jump to the hasty conclusion that I’m opposed to a dog park because I do not have a dog, let me assure you I do have a dog and am aware of my responsibilities as an owner. The principal argument for a dog park is “exercise is important to dogs’ mental and physical health.” I would take this argument a step further and state exercise is also

To many complications will come from a dog park. Such as situations like a dog attacking another dog or even attacking someone else. This can cause a lot of upset owners. Also many painful court cases. Dog parks will bring up a lot of legal issues that we don't need.

Dogs should have their own parks,because when dogs aren't getting the physical and mental excercise that they need, their behavior tend to get worse. ASPCA has a study that shows the rate of dogs biting humans went down drastically in places where they're dog parks. ASPCA also believes that if dogs had a park then their would be less incidents of dogs attacking humans,barking, and destroying things. Many dog owners have given their dogs up , because they started to act like''bad dogs'', this is because they don't have a dog park to excercise all their energy everyday. Dogs need a park just like humans.

Proper exercise would help maintain a dog's emotional stability - an emotionally stable dog is one that doesn't destroy property or harm innocent passer-by. This is supported when the author states, "According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), dogs that don't get exercise can act out by barking and destroying things at home. Socializing is important to. If a dog doesn't learn to get along with other dogs, it may attack a strange dog or a person." However, an important point is mentioned in, "No Dog Park for Muscatine" - dogs will still be capable of biting another dog or person, and this added risk could mean that an attack would lead to a lawsuit, both involving the owner of the dog, and the city, as it would be on public ground. This risk, however, is and will always be prevelant when a dog is able to interact with another person or animal - and, as stated within "A Dog Park Benefits All", "When New York City started allowing dogs off-leash in dog parks, dog-bite reports went from 40,000 to fewer than 4,000 per year". This evidence shows that a dog park will decrease the risk of a dog-related attack, not increase it. For this reason, concerns relating to the health of the dog can be answered with building a public dog

I believe that we as a state should we deside if that's a good idea or not. I think this way becuase there are many perspectives that you have to take in. You have to know how many people are in you town. You also have to know if you have enough space for a dog park.

Limiting a dog's physical activity can lead to many other problems such as dog-bite reports increasing, crowded dog shelters, and bad behaved dogs. Adding a dog park will only befenfit the growth of city in many aspects. Property values will increase and lawsuits should decrease, because dogs are proven to be more well behaved when active and social with one another.

I would certainly agree that a dog park is a beneficial addition to a community in which many residents own dogs. The particular benefits that such a public service offers should not, in my opinion, be dismissed.

I think having a dog park would help dog's exercise! Exercise is important to a dog's mental and physical health. Not exercising can lead to a dog acting up at home. Socializing Dog's with other dog's might be hard if you don't know anyone else with a dog. A dog park would help with meeting other dog's for our furry friends. Socializing dog's decrease the chance of dog bites!

A lack in sufficent exercise causes many problems in the homes of dog owners, and also causes dogs to be chaotic while doing everyday task, such as going for a walk. While on the other hand a dog park would be a perfect place for a dog to burn off that extra energy. Allowing your dog ,and yourself, to be more active and social. Socializing is a very important aspect in the daily life of all dogs. Without it dogs may become aggressive and may act out against

The discusion between people for the dog park and not for the dog park,Its simple to me. Although the city may need a dog park i see the views of both.Dogs need area,to run and play to burn off all there energy ,and yes!they wiil tear your house up for not enough attention causing them to bark and carry about.The barking is annoying,it does drive me crazy,the rambunciousness does aswell.Now bad behavior in a dog is just the owners lack of teaching the animal proper manners!I as a dog owner love and care about my dog,she is my best freind and i would love other people to be around my dog.A dog park would be the perfect place for families with well behaved dogs to come and play together.For the people who would not be able to stand a yelling

Other people may feel very different about dogs. They may feel like going to the park to relax with out any animals around, and to get away from other people. Many people feel like having dog parks will affect the tax payers money. Which it

I believe that a dog park should not be built due to the absolute burden it would be on all of those effected by it. From personal experience, I dislike dogs due to their rather annoying noise level. I also feel that it is not fair to use taxpayer money to build the dog park. While I do agree that dogs need exercise to maintain their health, I feel as though it shouldn’t come at the expense of taxpayers and residents.

First, I believe that dogs should be able to have an area where they can run freely and get the proper exercise needed to stay healthy. Just like us humans they deserve to be mentally and physically healthy. It is up to the dog owner to make sure their pet is properly taken care of so I agree with the pet owner for wanting to add a dog park to their neighborhood.

There are many benefits that would stem from the building of local dog parks, exercise for your pet and allowing them time to socialize being only a couple of those benefits. Spending more time outdoors with your dog, providing exercise for not only your pet but for yourself as well. The building of a dog park provides your dog with more than enough space for them to run around and be free for a bit. A dog park would benefit a wide range of people, making themselves and their pets happy.
