While this may be true, something still needs to be done for public safety. I live in a relatively urban area, a so-called up-scale community according to the real estate fliers, and I often feel like I live in the wild because I have to fear running into loose dogs.
I saw 2 more large loose dogs today while I was walking my boys in my neighborhood.
Also, everyone needs to respect that animals are animals (including humans
) and the sweetest, most loving, and docile ones can do something completely out of character. I've seen it first hand many times.
