Very small dog on the loose

Not sure if you want to post this without a picture. About 20 minutes ago I spotted a toy dog (likely a chihuahua or miniature pinscher), black with brown markings, running in the road at 27th St and Cedar St outside my house. I sat down and tried to get him to come to me but he was too scared and ran off down 27th towards O St.
I think I saw this same dog yesterday at 22nd and O.
He lives at 28th and O on the corner in a fenced in yard.
I’ve seen a lot of this since moving to CH about 3 years ago. On a weekly basis I see two of my neighbors dogs running loose through the neighborhood, both of which are kept on makeshift runs in unsecured yards. One is a beautiful, friendly pit, the other is a loud little mutt that tries to snap at you if you attempt to grab him. I also frequently see loose dogs while out on runs, which never happened when I live in other areas of the city. CH dog owners need a lesson in responsibility/dog training.
Just take a look at posts here. It seems like weekly there are dogs, cats, even birds (and a rabbit) that gets loose. If you have a small dog that runs past you at a door, pick them up before opening it. If they get under fences, fix the holes. Pet ownership involves more than just feeding it.
don’t forget the chickens that got loose
