After a while I realized that I was making the assumption that everyone at the crag liked dogs as much as I did and that I was imposing my will on them.

What right did I have to do that?

None.

I had the same epiphany. I wish everyone loved dogs.... Mine stay at home now too.

But if Locker will be there I'm bring my dog, and a big vat of beans.

Slack is off to the side. He's smarter and less obnoxious than most climbers.

I still have a twinge, 25 years later, in my bicep where I held on too long bouldering because a dog wandered underneath me.

It was my dog but whatever.

I now leave them at home but this is a purely first world problem.

Then will we find my shoes?

The crags are crowded. Shoot the dogs and no more crowding.

I loves the dogs, I surely do, I have two of them curling up at my feet right now, but dogs can be trouble.

I say shoot em.

Larry... I think it's like this: RELAX, spread your legs and trust the rubber.....

I do miss my dog, He was the one making me go on very long Mt. Bike rides, big uphill hikes and 2 times a day mile walks, when we were in town.

Now I just sport climb.

Are those "Trannies" fannies in that photo Philo posted???...(EDITED: and I re-posted)...

Absolutely not Locker. Real deal all around.


But, if you are having difficulty telling the difference I offer this refresher course....

I just went on a short backpacking/climbing trip last night and my dog carried in some beers for us. My dog is welcome anytime as long as she pays her dues.

I'd be more up to take dogs on mountain walks and day hikes than to the crags (I've done so in the past!), but have been criticized by others on the trails for doing so...

A dog at every crag, a gun on every rack, a bike in every wilderness, a bolt next to every crack.

On the chance that Miho is sincere, and still reading, the answer is
...

It's the same chance that I climb 5.14 and climate change is caused by people wearing sunscreen

The most successful troll in internet history after sincere discussions, even before the web on rec.climbing went on and on in vitriolic orgies

Dogs belong in the Gym and should wear Lycra doggie pants to prevent accidents

Peace

No Miho, don't bring dogs to the outdoor climbing.....now to the indoor climbing, that's an entirely different manner. Gym owners actively encourage their members to bring their dogs and, get this, they encourage the dog owners to leave their leashes behind. Something about the dogs mingling and creating more of a family atmosphere.
