“To the two older men with the aggressive off leash dog on Klingle,
I was walking behind you at the top of the Klingle Valley Trail when I saw your dog ahead of you It was barking and lunging very aggressively at a DC public works employee who was very clearly scared. You had no control over your dog, who ignored your yells to stop.
You finally got your dog to continue on into Tregaron and I commented after you that dogs need to be leashed, especially if they’re aggressive. Instead of responding in a mature and reasonable way, you proceeded to mock me, telling me sarcastically that I must be very smart. I responded that I am and that DC regulations support me.
The entitlement as well as the lack of responsibility and common decency was appalling and you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Leash your fucking dogs DC. Even if they’re well behaved.”
