Re: (Gazette, June 12)

I was happy to see Mike DaviesB次元官网网址� article. As a frequent walker in parks, I was especially relieved to see the Capital Regional DistrictB次元官网网址檚 reminder that B次元官网网址渄ogs must be on a leash at all times within parks from June 1 until Sept. 15.B次元官网网址�

I am also very fond of well-trained dogs and recognize their need for exercise and discipline.

It is unfortunate that some people donB次元官网网址檛 take the time to train their dogs to obey safety commands. Those dogs are allowed to bark at, snap at and jump on strangers who often find those behaviours terrifying.

From now on, I will report all incidents of dogs jumping on strangers in parks to the CRD by calling 250-478-3344. IB次元官网网址檓 looking forward to seeing the police out on their bikes on the trails. Thank you for your efforts to keep our public parks safe places for all to enjoy.
