Stupid new anti-tethering law

The Governator just signed a law prohibiting tethering a dog for more than 3 hours.

This really ticks me off because based on this law, we never would have been able to continue to own the dog we had for most of my young life. Or, rather, to continue to own her would have required that we pen her in a cage rather than tie her to a long tether that gave her freedom of movement around the majority of a large backyard. We couldn't leave her inside because she had a habit of destorying screens, and we couldn't leave her loose outside because she easily scaled just about any fence/wall/gate (no matter how tall), even with 3 legs. So, a tether it was. Far better than putting her in a cage or some tiny dog run.

Stuipd stupid stupid law.
