"There are lots of dogs roaming on my street. All dogs should be fenced in. Owners should be fined if their dogs are caught roaming the streets without their owners. There was one incident I decided to go home for lunch, after I was done eating I opened the front door and there was a stray dog sitting on my porch I had to call the police for them to send someone to remove the dog off my porch.. I was 30 minutes late returning to work from lunch."
