PETSIt is against the law to have dogs off leash. Just because your dog

is small or cute or friendly, does not mean that it gets a pass on the law. Chronic dog barking is considered a nuisance and is a violation of state law. Also, remember, if it is too cold or too hot outside for you, the same is true for your pets. I have also noticed that people walk their dogs, allow their dogs to use someone else’s yard as a

bathroom, and fail to pick up after their dog. Please be a responsible pet owner and

cleanup after your pet.
