Angels3, that sounds so nice. We have an "area" in my community where dogs can be without leash. Nothing but green grass. That's great for me now because the city is in the process of burying cable ( protection against hurricanes, tornados, etc.) and my back yard is partially torn apart. So, whenever they go out it's always on a leash. I try to take Bandit and Jeffrey to my parents home almost every weekend. They live in the country and have lots of wide open space. It's funny because I believe Jeffrey recognizes the scenery. As soon as we get into the country he practically gnaws at the car window. Freedom and no leash!
