Take Care of Your 'Dog Chain'

In recent years, urban dog keeping has become a trend among people. You can see dog walkers everywhere, from streets to squares.

With dog walking comes a series of urban problems that need to be addressed.

First, the safety of dog walking. Some people keep large dogs in cities, often with women leading them for a walk. But you know, if a large dog goes into a frenzy, you can't control it. Some even don't leash their dogs, claiming it's to prevent the dogs from being unfairly treated, saying their dogs are so gentle. But dogs are dogs, they can't speak, so who knows when they'll go into a frenzy? Now, news reports often show injuries caused by dog walking, even life-threatening ones.

Second, the hygiene of dog walking. The purpose of dog walking is one to walk and one to defecate. Is it unreasonable to have two? If there are many dog droppings all over the streets, it's not only a problem for the city environment, but also a nuisance for others who don't want to step in dog poop.

Finally, this is the harm to dog owners themselves. With the diversification and mutation of viruses, such as avian influenza being transmitted by birds, what if there's a dog flu one day? What then? Those dog owners who sleep with their dogs every night and have close contact are simply unbelievable.

I advise dog owners to treat dog walking as if you're holding your 'dog chain,' so that pedestrians and beautiful cities are no longer harmed.
