Dear, they really can't do anything to me as long as I follow the rules; when I break the rules, I'll pay the fine too. Until then, you can just "jerk off here". I have the dog on a leash where it's prescribed and also where it's not, but there is livestock nearby, sheep, screaming children etc. I respect many things; sometimes, when I see that someone is afraid of the dog (then the dog senses very well that you are afraid of it and will want to come to you even sooner than if you pass calmly without fear and glances from the corner of your eye at the dog), I step aside or we go around each other or I hold the dog very short so it doesn't go to people (who already show fear before we meet). I see the signs!!! I always look where they are and what they say, and if it says that I must have it tied, I tie it; if the sign says the dog must not bathe, I won't bathe it either, until then, or like on the TNP sign in Ukanc at Lake Bohinj when you don't know exactly what the sign means (3 interpretations), then I follow my judgment. I pick up poop after my dog!!! Where it's necessary; it would be nice if beggars, grannies who take their grandkids from kindergarten and let them poop behind the first bush (in town) also cleaned up after them, that the same law applied to them. As I say, when you roe deer, chamois pick up your poop behind you (in mountains, on fields..., cows on pastures - does anyone pick up after them? you'll say that's a completely different poop??? Come on, don't be too smart and don't look only black and white, try to see colors too), then I will also pick up after my dog in those places! I will never claim that my dog won't bite (why does it have teeth and muzzle then), but I think there's less likelihood that my dog will bite than stray dogs, dogs chained at home...
Think a little before you start writing here and talking bad about us - dog owners; it's true and I completely agree that we must follow rules and regulations. For now, I do; if not (no one has forwarded me the rules in TNP yet, I read the TNP law and it doesn't say about prohibited bathing in ponds), please give me a link where it says what thing I'm currently breaking (not picking up poop in mountains, fields...) and if I read that it's legally required that I must do it, then I will follow it; until then, I won't. I think I'm one of the few who strive to follow the law (dog on leash when needed, dog training and socialization, picking up poop after my dog when necessary...)
By the way, if you're already "jerking off" here so much, why don't you report to the police what you observe??? Not picking up poop, dogs not on leashes... If the police respected the law and issued fines (not only when a bite happens) but also for not picking up poop, unleashed dog on public surface... the state would have huuuuge money; other owners would quickly buy leashes and bags
