i am also a longtime volunteer with the san francisco spca. i have taken my dog to hospitals, rehab units, psych wards. dogs to help heal the body and the spirits. i consider watching the dogs playing and running. my own personal animal assisted there at the open air session. if we did not have dogs, we would spend our time at home reading the new yorker instead of getting our walking. i find it ironic that the national park service is pushing the healthy hearts healthy people program when they are cutting the 1% of the land now available. they should really be expanding the area for off-leash areas. there weren't that many people out there. i would say there is probably 20 or 40 times as many people walking. we need more space, not less. thank you. >> i am a fourth generation san franciscan. i have been at ocean beach all my life. i fished with my father. i've played in the caves. you know, i go up to there and it is covered with concrete, it is covered with an invasive species. all of the trees are eucalyptus. it is still a wonderful, beauti

san francisco on april 30th. >>> well, this brings new meaning to the word catwalk. animals strutted their stuff at the spcamal fashion show with a special celebrity guest. you know dusty. he was caught dragging dozens of items from neighbors' yards. he was adopted from the humane society. it benefits the hope program that allows the shelter to treat animals with medical or behavioral issues and place them into new homes. so there he is in jail with his little prison garb on. >> don't tell them where that came from, of course. >> meteorologist leigh glaser is here. >> terrific day and they will do it again tomorrow. much colder temperatures as we head into midweek. we will show you on the accu-weather seven-day forecast. what a day it has been. this is the high definition sutro camera. you can barely see the dome there. the bay bridge of course. currently we have a string of 48. santa rosa 48. napa 48 and fairfield at 48. a few high clouds are over the ridge. san francisco is 56 and redwood city at 54 with some clear skies there. san jose 55 and it is 49 right now in livermore. here is a look at some highli

san francisco landlocked without any access or control over the future of its coastline. i'm a person with disabilities as i mentioned. i have a service dog that i adopted from the spca. he's 14 years old now. why? because he's able to have those large open spanses to be able to run and to be 14 years old and to be almost a 90-pound german shepherd is quite a feat. so i support the resolution. thank you very much. >> my name is jose maldonado. i'm a young athlete. and i think dog off-leashing parks help people exercise more, stay healthy, and i think we need more parks like this. i don't know what the business purpose is of this, things that we don't know, but seriously people enjoy so much, as well as my girlfriend, family, friends, people that we meet and dogs that we interact with. so i think this is a very beautiful thing to have. please do not take it away. >> hello. my name is dina kate. i'm here as a dog lover -iron/advocate. i want to say how we have a family dog who's 13 years old, and as long as i can remember we've always taken her to ocean beach and fort funston. some of the greatest times that me and my friends and family have had, especially after your s
