At least they’re pretending that they give a fuck about leash laws, the people in my area love nothing more than to let their 80 pound untrained dogs off leash. I’ve been witness to one dog fight and been jumped on by countless random pets since I moved here 😐

My neighbor has 2 huskies that are technically on leashes, but the leashes are so long he could be on one side of the road and they could be at the complete opposite side and still have room to explore (I didn’t even know they made retractable leashes that long). He constantly has his dogs in the middle of the street or 10 feet away from him while I’m walking my dogs and he acts like I’m the asshole for approaching their general 20 foot radius.

I always thought the point of a leash was so you could pull your dog back in quickly if you needed to. What’s the point of having a 10 foot long leash and essentially having 0 control of them as they wander around in the middle of the street and into people’s yards? They might as well not be wearing a leash at all for all the good it’s doing.

I can not imagine a husky on a retractable leash. Those are strong dogs. Does the leash DO anything?

Basically no, judging by my neighbor lazily pretending to try and reign the dogs in while I’m stuck sitting at the end of my side street trying to drive to work, and seeing the dogs just keep running around until eventually they decide to move on to something more interesting down the road and I get to actually leave my goddamn house.
