    "it is a very hilly community and you can get winded. The other thing would be if the folks didn't pick up dog waste it could get very messy. When walking your dogs in our neighborhood you sense that people care and enjoy their community. Very safe and secure neighborhoods. There is a leash law in our city and it gives us a sense of security and safety. Strong emphasis on licensing dogs in our city too. "
