Pet restraint is important!

You will find an article at Kenai Peninsula Online, Alaska titled " Restrained pets are safe pets" subtitled Prevention is the best way to deal with animals hit by cars.

I find this to be an important article for people to puruse. I agree that dogs should be on leashes or in fenced in yards and cats should stay in the house. Putting your dog on a leash has many advantages. Not only do you keep your pet safe you also protect yourself from any incidents your pet may cause. Dogs are dogs and are not always predictable even if they are usually well behaved. It really is beneficial to you to keep your pet on leash. The days of letting our beloved pets run free have passed. There are to many hazards that can occur such as wild animals eating your pet. That may not be a pleasant thought yet it can be very real due people building homes further into the wilderness displacing wildlife. Your pet could be just another meal! The warning in this article should be taken seriously in my opinion. What do you think?
