Dog on a leash

[raymond6751]

I almost got into a fight today with a biker over my dog not being on a leash. I've been walking dogs here since '92, in the woods beside our river. Everyone does, no leashes.

Then two summers back the city paved the path, put a yellow line down the center and the bikers showed up. Now they won't slow down, won't sound off, and give us trouble.

My dog was greeting two others on the left side of the path. This guy and his wife stopped their bikes and gave us impatient looks. I said, "you could go around, you know?" He says the dogs have to be on a leash and the next time he sees me, I'd better have it on leash."

You can imagine my reaction! He gets off his bike, so I get squared off. He takes out his phone and starts taking my picture!! It's to give it to the police, he says!! Off he rode.
