Matthew Parker :
Now that both the NYS Supreme Court and the NYC Health Board have spoken
strongly and unequivocally in favor of off-leash recreation, we need clear
and fair written rules that will govern the successful 20-year off-leash
hour policy going forward. |

I support off- leash hours because they benefit NYC residents in both
direct and indirect ways. It has been a good public policy but it will be
even better and safer once clear rules are written. |

Elke Borgstadt MD :
Dogs are feeling creatures. By nature, they must be entitled to sufficient
exercise.
On leash walking does not satisfy exercise requirements for most dogs.
Thank you |

dogs need to have physical freedom, why not outlaw dogs as pets in nys
then? |

I was in Riverside Park at about 9:30pm one night when a young scared guy
ran up to me. He said he was almost mugged and that when he saw me with my
dogs he immediately sought us out for protection. We all walked out of the
park together. I wouldn't have been there in the first place if my dogs
couldn't be off leash. |

Katherine Roberts :
Dogs need to be able to run off leash to get enough exercise. Exercise
helps them become well- adjusted animals. |

For safety reasons, I supported offleash hours before I owned a dog, now
with a dog we both get more exercise during offleash hours in the park. |

I have socialized and exercised my dog off leash for the past 7 years which
has resulted in one happy, well behaved companion. It goes to show you
that these off leash hours do benefit the dogs and I enjoy meeting my
friends each day as well. |

Not all dog owners live near a good dog run, and some dogs don't do
well in dog runs. That is why this bill is so important. We must have
secure off leash hours in city parks so that thousands of NY dogs get to be
dogs! A simple walk around the block will suffice for some dogs, but many
more need exercise that only off leash time can bring. |

MARY LASHINSKY :
This is a great opportunity for the dogs to socialise and become better in
their behavior towards animals and people.
I go to the park everyday with my beagle(Madison) and she is sweet and
friendly with other dogs, adults and especially children.
This is because I have socialised her in this kind of environment. Also I
have shown children and adults how to behave around dogs.
I have learned a lot myself from Madison and people in the park. The park
is a beautiful and fun place to be.
The main important thing also, is that the dog owners should make sure
that they are always in control of their dogs at all times. |
