In Orrin's latest rant, he somehow tries to draw a link between two suburban dogs fenced into their backyard that escaped and attacked a neighbor and her dog with the NYC Off-leash Hours policy.
But in citing this example of enclosed suburban lifestyle, yet again our Dear Orrin unwittingly proves the point that NYC Off-leash Hours policy encourages dogs to be less aggressive, less territorial, and better socialized with other people and dogs that they may have never encountered.
Many dog behaviorists have confirmed that a dog left in a suburban yard, without proper socialization and exercise with other dogs and people, is more likely to be aggressive--similar to a "junk yard" dog who is left to guard its territory and not properly socialized toward strangers.
Anyone who comes out to see the thousands of dogs in the 89 parks currently with Designated Off-leash Hours Areas will see that responsible off-leash recreate results in urban dogs that are well socialized and well behaved. If one were to believe Orrin's screeds, one would think there would be blood running in our parks every day. Over 20 years of a successful off-leash policy has shown that clearly to be false. So much so that the Department of Health, after closely studying the 20+ year successful "experiment" altered the Leash Law to accommodate the policy explicitly.
So we must again give thanks to Orrin. Not only has his efforts alone and with his fellow anti-offleash jihadists helped finally to codify the Off-leash Hours policy into case law at the State Supreme Court, and in the Health Department and Parks Department regulations, but he continues to show (inadvertantly) why NYC has some of the best socialized dogs in the world. Thank you Orrin. Keep up the good work.

Orrin must sit up at night searching the Internet for any negative stories about dogs. In a country where 75 million people have pets, and in NYC where over 1 million have dogs, he is forced to scrounge like the weasel he is.
His shriveled ways are truly pathetic.
First he accuses me of being someone named Terry, but then he threatens me about outing him. Go ahead. First, you will have to reveal yourself in court for the dark soul you are; by name. And through discovery my attorneys will eviscerate you because you have crossed the line so many times it’d take hours to merely list. And as any first year law student knows, you will have to prove actual damages. Since you are anonymous, what has been damaged? And after we are done, that Terry woman (Terry, I apologize, I do not know your full name) can have a whack at you for disparaging her name. You may have gone to Harvard and Columbia, but it probably was as a tourist.
You accuse me of being anti-Semitic, though I am Semitic myself. You could not even understand my analogy with Israel and you. I praise the fighters and people of Israel who fought for our homeland and said if they had people like you, they’d be long gone. To you that is anti-Semitic. Fool that you are; I was simply stating a fact: you use anonymity, threats of pepper spray, and phony correspondents to hide your cowardness. You are not a man. You are barely sentient.
Your campaign against responsible dog owners is equally pathetic. Rather than working WITH dog owner groups to promote responsible dog ownership, you are accusatory, sweeping in your claims, and ignorant in your so-called knowledge of the law, animal behavior, and society in general.
You COULD have used your abundant free time to help secure avian sanctuaries. Instead you are like the drunk at the end of the bar who complains about the world but is too busy wallowing in your own bile to actually do anything productive.
So if you think you are a man, start acting like one. Do something productive and helpful to our community. Or you can continue to snort around the internet looking for bits you can then distort to fit your perverted thinking. You give meaning to the term Swine Flu.
By the way, you do not post my comments. I do not care. No one reads your blog- I barely check it these days myself. Like the boy who cried wolf, your story has become so boring that the only sounds you hear are your echoes. Everyone else has left the room and now it’s time to shut the lights.
