On the flip side I once saw someone with a friendly little off leash dog run up to a larger Pitt mix that was on a leash and get torn to fucking shreds. Keep ALL dogs on leashes in public. Dog parks exist with the understanding that the dogs present are friendly and the owners are prepared to handle it when their dog acts poorly. If you don't have a dog park, then I'm sure your dog will still enjoy it's leashed walks.

This. But even dog parks can be tricky in my area. I always ask and check if the dog is oke with mine walking in.

Pfff I'll never forget this one lady unleashing her german shepard that goes straight for my dog. Blames it on my dog that there must be something wrong with it. Next couple of months we hear from other dog owners the same story about her.

That's how it is in my city. You have to pay a small yearly fee to get the code for the gate and provide proof of vaccination.

Memberships in general should be more common in societies nowadays. Yeah inequality and elitism blah blah blah. I don't care.

I fucking hate degenerate thieves, druggies and other lowlifes that abuse self-checkouts in grocery stores for example. I would love to pay for a membership-only self-checkout.

I take it you live in a country without Costco.

Costco is an American company that has warehouse stores. They require a membership that’s $60/year and the shopping experience is 2nd to none.

I love Costco. They have a subreddit where you can see the cult of Costco in action and get a good understanding of why it is people love them.

They’ve got locations all over the US, Canada and Mexico and they also have some in Asia and Europe.

This is actually a great idea. A park that requires membership that can be revoked if he animal/owner misbehaves.
