The dog-walking law is a nice idea, but the ban on choke and electric collars is ill-advised. Those collars are excellent training devices, when used properly. We recently took our two new dogs (rescued from the pound) to a professional trainer in Martinez. He used several training methods, from the Gentle Leader to the choke and pinch collars, and finally the electric collar. None of these devices have ever hurt our dogs. The end result is we now two of the most well-behaved dogs you’ll ever see. How can that be a bad thing?

Wouldn’t it be nice if it DID catch on?? If there are Beta (Siamese Fighting Fish) living in Rome, I sure hope they were included too. It breaks my heart to see those little guys “living” in 8 oz. of water. What a sad thing!! Let’s hear it for Rome and its Pet Population!!!
