LA QUINTA DESIGNATED OFF LEASH AREA FOR DOGS

Target:

La Quinta City Council Members

Sponsored by:

We the undersigned petition La Quinta City Council Members for a designated area for our dogs to be off leash.

La Quinta Residents and Part-time residents only....please sign the petition and pass it along to your friends, families, and neighbors. Public officials like to see names and comments. Comments make the issue personal.

"A good dog is a tired dog." The cardiovascular benefit provided by healthy dog to dog play is great for dogs. Dogs need to run, chase balls and play frisbee. Healthy dogs are calmer and better behaved.

We believe the area south of the La Quinta Cove Oasis is the perfect spot for off-leash. It is wide open space. We moved to La Quinta so we could enjoy the open space with our dogs.

We believe owners should be responsible. Their dogs should be licensed and feces picked up. Dogs should be well-behaved.

The current dog parks are to small. Even if you combined all the dog parks in La Quinta into one park it would be to small for large dogs to run and play.

The city states that California Leash Law requires dogs to be on-leash. Many cities allow un-fenced off-leash areas like Palm Desert, Coronado and Huntington Beach.

What's wrong with at the oasis? Nobody uses it but the bottle breaking kids. Dogs love to meet each other. Good place for shade and smells. Not to mention the drinking fountain they put in for dogs.

Our Dogs need the freedom to run. I have never had any problems with dogs off leash in the three years that I have been walking the trails in the upper cove. Thanks for bring everyones attention to this ridiclous matter.

Dogs need ares where they can run off leash to play and socialize with otehr dogs. This allows a dog to grow both physically and mentally, thus preventing the dog from becoming unhealthy and poorly tempered.

La Quinta Cove residents need an area at the top of the cove to walk their dogs "free" of the leash. Many of us are regulars with our dogs and know each other. I have never had a problem with another dog being off it's leash. There seems to be a "courtesy" among dog owners to have their leash's ready to put on their dog if needed. Let our dogs be free!!!

Dog Parks are great for the community as neighbors talk to each other as their dogs run.

My dog is a trained loving obedient dog. She should not be kept from a total work out. Thanks, Jim

The dog parks in the Valley are miserable tiny, tiny spaces. back home the park I go to is 13,670,166 sq feet. And that is only one park of many in the city. (edworthy park in Calgary). you have the space, why not have a half decent sized park with trails???

Ajax and Zeus are very friendly dogs with gentle personalities, good owners who will pay attention to where they are. Their owners are not the type who would take advantage of any other living being or plant.

We are not dog owners however, we are all fortunate to have so many open aeas here that it makes sense to work together and provide for man's best friend.

The city of LaQuinta has emerged as forward thinking and committed to its residents. Please allow the many dog owners to have a safe and sanctioned area where our animals may enjoy running free without a leash.

I am tired of taking our dogs to the baseball diamonds at the bottom of the cove to let the dogs run without their leashes. It is obvious from the "land mines" left by other dogs that we are not the only people doing this. I am sure that the ball players who use the field would appreciate the dog park as well.

I found it very frustrating upon moving to the desert that there was no place for my dog to run; we need to have some "open space". Dog parks are not the whole answer. A responsible dog owner will monitor his pet and its performance.

We need a place for our big dogs to run and play.
