thanks for validation

once is an accident, twice is not caring and being irresponsible

I feel like such a karen but I looked up the dog beach laws and the dogs have to be under control at all times. My beef was with the owner , I could see the dog was good natured but just not controlled or trained well. Note I talked to the owner and held her responsible for her dog. I didn't blame the dog at all, didn't yell at the dog, dog was just being a dog. I said No is all.

gees, and I was playing with four dogs at once just 30 minutes before that. ( they were all adorable, especially the very fluffy one who had such short legs it made us laugh when she would run) I really love dogs

I see so many families at the beach. That dog could hurt people.

I'm thinking when the weather improves and it's crowded every day other dog owners will start having a go at this dog owner and they will not put up with her darvo shit.
