It is always a contentious issue when a beach is declared leash free. On the one side, there is nothing nicer than seeing a dog run freely and wagging it's tail out of delight of freedom and happiness. On the other hand there are beach goers who also want to enjoy the beach but their dogs might be on a lead because they are recovering from an operation or injury, on heat, maybe blind and scared, or maybe not the kind of dog that likes to be around other dogs out of fear or maybe protective.
The community of Sunset Beach and their HOA have stepped in to help this Pet Friendly and Leash Free beach community with an educational seminar TO THE PUBLIC to help make it easier for visitors to enjoy the beach. It is rather selfish of people to say : "well then dont bring your dog here" but in all honesty, when we get our beloved puppies, we never ever really know just how they are going to turn out. Some of us are lucky that they are friendly and social, some of us end up with the ones who prefer to be left alone.
Either way, the bottom line is that we need to keep all these facts into consideration and be considerate towards everyone in all situations to come together and enjoy a space made available for our beloved pets.
