    "most people around us have farms so dogs stay in their own yards. People walk our road alot in the summer but always have them on a leash. our road can be busy and cars go way to fast. The dog owners in our neighborhood seem to take this in account so they walk them on a leash. The thing is we have no side walks being in the country so when you are walking your dog you must get off the road but all in all it's a great place to have animals. "
