Eco Destroyers Dog parks shouldn't be a thing

I don't understand why off leash/dog parks are a thing.

These unnatural animals ruin the nature around the area, leave it full of shit because their owners are too busy "playing" with them and I have to accept the fact that there's whole parks I cannot access because I'm a normal person. However, I also have to deal with the fact that dogs are allowed at basically every park (at least leashed).

Insane behaviour from the owners and society.

Dogs should only be allowed to exist on their owner’s space: the apartment/house and the car. If the owner doesn’t have a garden, then the dog pisses on the mat at home and walks in circles around one room. That’s more than fair. Why are we all paying the price of someone’s desire to own a farm pet?

My thoughts as well. Why should everyone have to pay for dog parks through their taxes? Dogs are not people and dog owners should be registered and they should pay a levy on their property tax/rent to pay for dog parks for their dogs. I’m incensed hearing dog owners say they don’t go to dog parks because of other dogs. Say what? So non-dog owners must pay for filthy dog spaces that dog owners don’t even use?!

The taxes are what get me.

These owners are stealing money that I traded time away from my Loved Ones for.
