Last week when daduh was taking me on one of my midday constitutionals, we saw something that was really scary and sad.  As we were rounding the bend in our development, we saw a woman leaning over a dachsund and she wasn't happy at all.  She was yelling at it and then starting slapping it in the face for something.  She did this as daduh and I stared right at her and wasn't even slightly deterred by an audience.  Then when the dachsund saw me it came running over at me cuz it wasn't on a leash.  It bared it's teeth and growled at me. 

Oh yeah, did I forget to mention the 100+ lb great dane that was also not on a leash that belonged to this woman and came over toward me as well.  Not a fun walk.  Even better, this woman and her unleashed dogs don't even live in our development.  They just come over to use ours apparently.  As she walked away with the dachsund, the dane kept staring at me and wouldn't move or listen to her as she got further and further away.  Why do people think leash laws aren't for them to follow and especially on big, huge dogs like a dane.  I just don't get people sometimes.  I mean, us doggies are so cute, why would u wanna slap us around or worse, not leash us and potentially have us run away and get hit by a car.
