    "Most of my neighbors do own a dog(s) and are either fenced in or on a leash . Otherwise the road that runs north and south in front of my house can quite busy at times and drivers often speed and don’t pay attention to small kids or pets "

    "I think it would be a mixed bag as not every yard has a fence and some owners do not leash. Through traffic can be a dangerous situation as well."
