Description

More prominent Posted signs regarding dogs need to be placed in West Roxbury 's Millennium Park. Dog owners allow their dogs to run free like children in a playground. Many different owners gather and what results is a pack of rambunctious dogs taking over the upper level of the park. Not only is it a safety issue to the small children and adults jogging/walking it is also a health issue as the dogs defecate through out the park and the dog owner looks away. Below is a picture if signs that are in the Boston Common. These signs should be posted in all the parking lots just before entering into the parks fenced area. Proper patrolling and ticketing would also be helpful. Please do not wait until a tragedy happens. Today I saw a woman pushing a baby stroller have a large dog sprint across a field and go right to the toddler in the stroller knocking the stroller over with force. Had it not been for the Mother if the toddler who sprawled across her child and stroller and kick the dog away, I would hate to think what could have happened.
