Deerfield-News. com-Deerfield Beach, Fl-Today on a couple of Facebook groups in Deerfield beach the topic has turned to the dogs. Many are questioning why dogs are not allowed at parks,today it was about Sullivan Park. We have received many emails in the past and done post about no dogs on the beach. Seems there are two factions those who want an area for dogs on the beach and those who want the code not allowing the dogs strictly enforced ant the beach.
Today’s posts from our group Deerfield beach are posted below. Let is know what are your thoughts about dogs at the parks and the beach.
Deerfield-News.com is of the opinion a dog-friendly section of the beach would be a good idea. The city of Deerfield Beach has the opportunity to utilize space north of the pier, including buying back the tract of land Ms. Clothier owns and turning it into a section for the dogs.
Here is our thought about fines and how Deerfield Beach spends more money to pay for code enforcement and does not collect fines, so what good are they if not collected?
I have written about the subject of fines many times. The facts are if Calvin and Giordano are in charge of collecting this fine we would never see the money. When I started this group it was for” readers” of the blog who followed us on Facebook. Getting back to the issue Calvin and Giordano have gotten paid 20 million dollars in the last five years from the city and not collected over “60 million dollars” in fines. Fines not collected is the last thing the city needs, enforcement with a collection of fines is what they must do. Remember BSO already has enough on its plate. The city is aware that people bring their dogs to the beach and sometimes let them off the leash to run free. The city is aware some want an area at the beach like other cities to have for dogs.

AuthorI’m sorry you feel that the restrictions remove the “fun”. Many of us feel that these restrictions make the park enjoyable for everyone.

when done doing whatever you enjoy going to the park for, you can pack up, go home, and watch the grass grow.

many of us feel folks like you need to be leashed and not allowed in parks.

When you say “us”, are you indicating that you are one of the individuals that walks their dog in Sullivan Park?

I’m indicating I am a dog owner and find most non-dog owners that complain about “small stuff” and dogs in a park to be undesirables.

AuthorJack McCabe
got it. So you are one of the dog owners who violate the “small stuff” rules and walk their dog in the park?
Gene Kleinworst set of rules ever. People like you peep out of their windows and yell at kids for playing to close to their crappy yards. Get a life

Same reason people take their non-service dogs into stores (particularly small dogs that they can put in the shopping cart) – because they think their wants and needs are far more important than the rules. I would love to do the same thing with my Ger…

actually LOTS of places allow dogs. ALDI, Lowe’s, tractor supply to name a few
Everytime we go to Lowe’s our 90 lb Great Pyrenees goes with us -

I know Lowe’s do, and I love seeing dogs in there, but I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to take dogs where food is sold.

Ppl walk their dogs all up in publix!

Kimberly Watson
I do believe all Publix have a sign saying service animals only but people still bring their pets in anyway Publix managers are the only ones that can enforce it but they don’t just as long as the animal is not in the shopping cart

It’s obviously not allowed. There’s a sign that says so. Enforcement is another issue – but I’d much prefer they enforce things that are endangering people. Were the dogs you saw hurting someone? Did they seem vicious? Did the owners fail to clean up a…

furthermore, why are we blaming the messenger? People need to follow the rules and if they don’t like them, go to city hall and get them changed. I’m not going to take my dogs to places where they’re not welcome.

They need to update the sign. It also says no bikes. But in the graphic, it shows a bike as one of the activities…

They are encouraging children to play there. Maybe some dogs don’t mix well with little children. Just a thought

In my book, the majority of parks should be dog friendly and only a few that they are restricted for people that don’t like dogs. Instead it is the other way around, with dogs banned from most public parks and the beach. Perhaps instead of enforcement …
