Graveyards are not dog parks

This doesn't have to be a long post.  I'll cut straight to the point: graveyards are not dog parks.  I live adjacent to the Holden East Cemetary and it has become a daily thing where disrespectful pet owners allow their animals to relieve themselves in the graveyard, many times *on gravestones* that are already in a state of decay due to their age.  

There are vets from nearly every war in that graveyard.  Some of those folks were born in the late 1700s.  What you are doing is wrong.  It is utterly disrespectful.

Enough is enough.  Be an adult.  Right next to this sacred place is a giant field where your dog can run free.  Let it do it's business there.  It's an enormous field.

Graveyards are not dog parks.  You should know better.  You're an adult.

Good night.
