"certain types of dogs are not allowed and the ones you are allowed to have are not allowed to walk are around freely because there are a lot of big dogs roaming around so you have to be very careful even with your kids being outside because they will run up on you and attack. It’s very unsafe and you have your be extra careful at all times so nothing happens "
