Obey Your Local Leash Laws
Leash laws are no joke in Palm Springs, Calif. On Rancho Mirage’s Butler-Abrams Trail, the City Council has taken action to help remind everyone that dogs always need to be on a leash. Signs indicating leashes are required were installed on the trail, and city staff now patrol the area each morning.
Over in La Quinta, city staff used to give warnings to anyone caught walking his or her dog without a leash. Soon, the problem was so bad that staff began issuing citations immediately.
Off leash dogs lead to more bites and more impregnated dogs, according to officials.
The bottom line is that although leashes don’t eliminate issues, they allow owners to keep their dogs under more control than they would be able to off leash.
Personally, I’m not a big fan of retractable leashes for a variety of reasons, the leats of which is the fact that they are flimsy and easy to yank out of a hand. I prefer sturdy leashes, like these.
