He doesnt need to be mowing people down in exuberance while trying to say hi.
Plus, leash laws.

(16,616 posts)organization, doing some writing for them, and at that time was attempting veganism. There were some people in this organization that didn't believe animals and human beings should live together. They viewed "pets" as having no choice in the matter, and didn't take into consideration factors like adopting dogs that had only known captivity and couldn't ever survive in the wild.
I still respect the organization, but some of their ideas were a little too far out for me. I decided to leave after about two months, not just for that reason but for a few reasons. Three years later I volunteered at an animal shelter and have had dogs ever since.
I totally admire vegans, by the way. My leaving had nothing to do with my failure to go 100% vegan.

And I draw the line at only one dog on my bed at a time. Six inches of bed space is just not enough.
