a dog, she turned 17 years old last week. I believe that owning a dog,
especially when you have children, is a good thing. However, I stand beside
what I said before: dogs have no place in the common areas that we all share. If
the pile left outside the pool on Friday was cleaned up before you left then I
commend you for this responsibility that, unfortunately, not everyone will take
care of. On the other hand, I stand beside what I said before; I personally saw
the dog squat and leave a pile Friday and last summer leave a puddle on the
tennis court. I only saw the dog once on the tennis court, but did see it
inside the pool enclosure several times last summer.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

and cleanliness of the common area. No one should have to watch out for messes
when they are running and playing in the common areas, nor in any enclosure. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

happen to own a very large black dog. Last summer, my husband walked
our large black dog down to the playground with our children and played
ball with the dog on the courts. He did not treat the courts as a
kennel. He didn't notice the "No Pets" sign until
departing and has never taken her back inside the courts
again. This past week, he also walked our large black dog to
the pool and tied her to the outside of the fence while talking with
myself and his children. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

for people to leave their dog DNA behind, but unfortunately not everyone is a

walk my children and dog to the playground it is good family exercise.
I have seen other people also walk their dogs and children to the playground

neighborhood. As long as a dog is leashed and of no threat I
do not see the harm in allowing them to be part of our community. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
