Responsible owners have their dogs at heel, they tidy up dog mess, they don’t let them yap uncontrollably and don’t sniff around everyone and everything – especially as they are now welcomed in most restaurants. Why is it assumed that everyone is a dog lover? What about the rights of the rest of the population?
