A sweltering spring day, a newly minted dog beach, and one missing ball turn into a bigger question: why do we try to control what can’t be controlled? We head to Mona Vale where hundreds of dogs sprint through the surf and most humans smile—until a few arrive with tight rules, tight lips, and the belief that public spaces should run to their personal script. That tiny friction becomes our doorway into manners, shared spaces, and the sneaky sentence that fuels so much outrage: “this shouldn’t be happening.”
