I work down a leased road for an oil field water treatment plant and the residents let their dogs roam free (none live on big farms just normal yards) and they're running in and out of the road all day. There are large trucks that come in and out of the road all the time (anywhere from 3-5 axles). This irritates me enough that these people let their dogs run free while this is going on but to top it off a dog was hit by a water truck and killed last week and the other owners continue to let their dogs roam.

This seems very negligent to me and it frustrates me. Especially when my co worker got a resident here saying "Well, my dogs were here before those trucks were". Maybe I'm out of line for being upset, but I can't help it. I don't believe any dog should be allowed to roam free unsupervised when you live right next to several roads that are frequented by traffic.

Sorry..had to let that out.
