I grew up here and know the area very well. I do keep my dog leashed, it's the law! Well, this year my dog has been attacked 6 times, that's right SIX different times by the same UNLEASHED dog, 3 times he was held to the ground by the neck in the mouth of the other dog until I could free him of this dog. Two times I had my cell phone, so I called 911, the first time dog controll took a report, but I didn't know where the woman and the three dogs (greyhounds) went? The second time dog controll didn't take a report, but said it would be better if I file a report with his boss, and I will. When calling 911 the 2nd time 10/21/11 about 6pm I gave the officer a discription of the vehicle and tag # that they left in. Dog controll also told me of many reports of this person living in Brighton NY with 3 greyhounds, the one that is NOT leashed goes by the name Shamis, the largest of the 3, a dark greyish black in color. After one of these encounters, on my way home I saw my neighbors walking there dog, told them of my horrible event, and they said the same dog went to attack there dog also. I love dogs, it's the ignorant owners that I have a problem with. If this happens again, I somehow will photo these dogs and the OWNER and will be given to all officials of the city of Rochester and put in all public areas in the city until something is done. We all have the right to this public area, you (this woman who will not leash all 3 dogs) will not stop me from walking my dog through the grove. Yes, I fear for my dogs safety, so I hope something is done to convince you to leash your dogs when out in public, or Shamis may have to go, It's not his fault that his owner can't see that there is a problem, a legal problem! --["Users/philherzog"]</span> </td> </tr> </table> </div> https://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grovehttps://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grove?action=diff&version1=18&version2=19&ts=1259359090Washington Grove2009-11-27T21:58:10Zpetebinst headers <div id="content" class="wikipage content"> Differences for Washington Grove<p><strong></strong></p><table> <tr> <td> <span> Deletions are marked with - . </span> </td> <td> <span> Additions are marked with +. </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Line 1: </td> <td> Line 1: </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <span>-</span> ||&lt;b<span>gco</span>l<span>or='#E0E0FF'</span>&gt;'''Washington Grove'''|| </td> <td> <span>+</span> ||&lt;<span>class="ta</span>bl<span>ehead"</span>&gt;'''Washington Grove'''|| </td> </tr> </table> </div> https://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grovehttps://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grove?action=diff&version1=17&version2=18&ts=1259352547Washington Grove2009-11-27T20:09:07ZKatieSchmitzComment added. <div id="content" class="wikipage content"> Differences for Washington Grove<p><strong></strong></p><table> <tr> <td> <span> Deletions are marked with - . </span> </td> <td> <span> Additions are marked with +. </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Line 24: </td> <td> Line 24: </td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> <span>+ ------<br> + ''2009-11-27 15:09:07'' [[nbsp]] Aside from the conservation controversy circulating around Washington Grove, the City of Rochester Animal Control officers have been patrolling this park a lot more frequently, handing out tickets for off-leash dogs. Seems to me that the worst behaved dogs aren't the ones getting the tickets, unfortunately. Anyway, this is a wonderful park that is heavily traveled by people and dogs and feels reasonably safe. I don't think the dogs are the cause behind erosion in this park; I think mountain bikers are. --["Users/KatieSchmitz"]</span> </td> </tr> </table> </div> https://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grovehttps://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grove?action=diff&version1=16&version2=17&ts=1258737861Washington Grove2009-11-20T17:24:21ZJoannaLicataRevert to version 14 (Please do not edit others' comments). <div id="content" class="wikipage content"> Differences for Washington Grove<p><strong></strong></p><table> <tr> <td> <span> Deletions are marked with - . </span> </td> <td> <span> Additions are marked with +. </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Line 18: </td> <td> Line 18: </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <span>-</span> ''2009-08-25 23:55:16'' [[nbsp]] I recently went to the park after not having been there in about 4 months.

I was shocked and incredibly dismayed to see that the trails were completely torn apart and blocked off with piles of deadwood... it looked horrible. It looked like vandalism. My wife and I had brought our Labrador there on a leash, and we were verbally accosted at the Nunda entrance by an overzealous member of the Sierra Club who, amidst numerous threats to call the police if he saw our dog off his leash, told us that the entire park was to be revamped by the Club- with the consent of the City of Rochester.<br> + <br> + Many of the main trails have been blocked off completely by stacked tree trunks in an effort to "curb erosion." The man claimed that the majority of the erosion and widened trails has been caused by dogs. I find that statement to be dangerously narrow-minded and single-sided. It is obvious that the Sierra Club is trying to close off the park to bikes by blocking the trails, and trying to strongarm local dog owners by sending their eco-creeps into the park to bother us. The Sierra Club member followed my wife and I (he stalked us from afar), and she has been confronted and followed similarly while on her own with the dog... something that has prompted her to abandon going to the park unless I'm there too.<br> + <br> + I think the City agreed to let a questionable bunch of people (the Sierra Club) overtake our TAXPAYER FUNDED PARK. I've been a lifetime resident of Rochester and have been going to Washington Grove Park since I was a kid, and it's sad to see that the park is being ruined for the people who enjoy it with their dogs (and in general)- under the guise of "environmental concern."<br> + --["Users/Hummah"]</span> </td> </tr> </table> </div> https://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grovehttps://rocwiki.org/Washington_Grove?action=diff&version1=8&version2=9&ts=1226338524Washington Grove2008-11-10T17:35:24Zalexandergartleybolded the park's name in the description <div id="content" class="wikipage content"> Differences for Washington Grove<p><strong></strong></p><table> <tr> <td> <span> Deletions are marked with - . </span> </td> <td> <span> Additions are marked with +. </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Line 4: </td> <td> Line 4: </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <span>- </span>Washington Grove is a 100-acre ["parks" park] of large oaks and wildlife in the heart of the city.
