To me that is part of being a good and responsible dog owner.

>And fireworks and thunder can be very tough with some dogs no matter how good the owner is.

True, but it is also true that a good owner should be prepared to deal with these situations. If you know your dog is prone to anxiety attacks or fear due to loud, unexpected noises, this city is probably not the right place for them. And, just like parents learn to prepare and anticipate potential situations with babies/kids, an owner whose dog is prone to panic or anxiety should be proactive when going out and bring along whatever they may need, such as a thunder shirt/wrap, ear muffs, etc.

>The worst dog owners in this city are the ones that think they are so good at training they can let their dogs off leash wherever/whenever they wish.

100% agreed.

I think my flippant comment got us off to a bad start, but it seems to be that we probably think somewhat (or, very much) alike on some of this stuff.

Dude, you are really stretching here... But, I will play along: I don't think a loud, densely populated city such as JC is a great place for any war vet suffering from serious PTSD prone to panic or anxiety attacks that can be triggered by loud or unexpected noises. I have a TON of friends who are war vets and those who came back with PTSD have mostly flocked to middle America areas and/or small towns. It's the better setting for them for a number of reasons.
