Editor: With the hot weather upon us, folks are looking for cooler, wooded areas to walk.
We need to remind people that Passive Park on 36 Avenue, west of 208 is not an off-leash park.
There are so many dogs running free there when families with young children want to walk, or children want to bicycle the trails.
Having an unleashed dog run up to one’s small children is horrifically frightening to a family, no matter how loudly the owner is yelling, “Don’t worry, he is friendly.”
Family picnics at the tables have been ruined by dogs running up and making a grab for the food.
It was sad to hear one of my neighbours comment that they cannot have a family bike ride there as the last two times, the kids were chased by unleashed dogs. While there is a sign showing a leashed dog, perhaps a larger sign needs to be posted.
It is a lovely park, and families should be able to use it without fear.
