The reason why dogs are not allowed in the Botanical Gardens is not because anyone is worried about the plants being harmed.

If you have entered any of the parks of Buenos Aires then you would know that the piles of doggy doo are everywhere. The parks are much worse than the sidewalks, which are bad enough. This keeps many people out of the parks. If there are any laws about cleaning up after your dog in BA, those laws are not being enforced.

The folks at the Botanical Gardens were smart enough to keep the dogs out.

Thanks for a view of the lovely gardens. I agree that dogs should not be allowed. If you like dogs, keep one at home. Some people allow their dog to run off and burrow in the bushes. Dogs can attack other dogs. A person wishes to have a calm experience in the garden without walking on dog excrement.

Anyhow, thanks for your lovely input.

kind regards
