But people like that will go to the local lake (free of charge)& let their dogs & sick kids in, or them w/their questionable sores & dirty bodies, ewww, plus I have heard of people pooping & peeing in the lake-yuck. My cousins use to go to the lake-had constant bladder, kidney infections, always had strep, stomach viruses & fevers and they would talk about seeing poop floating in it. I would feel safer at a clean pool where you can at least see a turd in the water...I'm gagging now, ewww
Exactly! All the dogs that were there were very well behaved too. The people who were there were dog lovers. I doubt you would see anyone there that didnt take care of their dogs.
