Some of the Cavalier ladies were talking about this kind of thing the other night.. here's the solution: Buy some acreage and build condos for yourselves...with room for your dogs. No neighbors, either...that's the only way it's ever going to be peaceful for us all again......... right now, start looking.....because unless you already own enough land that you KNOW without a doubt that you will never have neighbors close by or even right on top of you (my God, 10 feet sounds like hell to me), this is the only way you'll be able to have dogs soon.......and then, when the ARistas have their way, even that won't be safe, unless you shoot any trespassers, including the animal control officers who set out to tell you your dogs are disturbing the neighbors who live 3 miles away........
