Proposed Off-Leash Rules

The rules at Portland’s city parks and off-leash areas are easy to find, read, and abide by. Sadly, the scoop law gets ignored quite frequently. Its a big issue, but the following are not, which I propose as additional guidelines for off-leash area use:

  • Try to keep your dog from barking constantly unless your own attempts to quiet it become more annoying than the barking.
  • Don’t point out my dog’s frailty.
  • Hump something else
  • Don’t lock your knees
  • If you have to laugh, don’t point and laugh
  • Even though you get cell phone reception, that doesn’t mean you have to use it.
  • Don’t take your dog to the off leash area if you aren’t going to take the dog off leash. – From soctt Scott

I’m sure there are more. Any glaring omissions? I’ll add ’em.

  2. I’m assuming you are talking about the dogs when you say “Hump something else” otherwise I want to know what park you are going to?

    How about:

    Don’t take your dog to the off leash area if you aren’t going to take the dog off leash.

  3. How about “don’t spell your name wrong if you’re going to write your own name”? Eh, soctt?
