The question poll is kind of interesting in a couple respects...

Is 40 acres enough room for an off-leash dog park?
o No, dogs need far more room to run.
o Yes, it's plenty for any dog.
o Keep them leashed.
Currently, 881 respondants with 16% for the first question, 53% for the second, and 31% from the third.

The way it is worded, then yes - i'd agree that 40 acres is a lot of space for a dog park - but not if its a bog. If they'd had a picture of the place, or a little blurb saying that the current location was a 'fixer-upper' location, then thats another thing.

Also, they have 2 answers on there that would take away from the 'No, dogs need to run' vote. Having the quiz answers as "No, its not enough" and "Yes, its enough or Dogs should be leashed at all times" as a second question would provide a more fair response I think.

Just a question though, since I can't seem to find the article about them giving or taking away the dog park -- if the city provides a new location for this dog park, are they also going to pay for new fencing, maintenance, and making pathways - or even providing the materials for some of the dog park members to do themselves?


--- Oh, and I voted NO as well ---
