Occasional bad egg
However, I find the ignorance of Mildred Peters (Gazette letters, July 5) intolerable – why should all dogs be muzzled?
There is the occasional bad egg, I admit, but nowhere near as many as humans.
To restrict their freedom in such a manner is not required.

Hide AdShould a dog owner not to be able to control the animal, then they should be given a severe fine and perhaps banned for life from keeping a dog.
Or the owner should keep the animal on a lead. It is the dog owner that should be addressed.
Anyone letting their dog off the lead is responsible and must keep it under control.
I do not believe that dogs are born vicious, they are made, apart from the slight chance of mental illness.
