If you search for "dog leash hitching post" you find a lot of different kinds
of things - and all of them look like something a horse could accidently destroy - and
would never keep them in such a spot if they yank if spooked.
Just like we have "bridleway" distinct from footway, I don't think we should use
"Hitching post", as it implies something to be used by hoses.
Man_made=pet_hitching_point would be my suggestion.
All the new Lawson convenience stores in Japan have one mounted outside, and
many pet parks also have them as well.
I will look up their brand name to provide more info. I have dejavu about this,
as I think I did this before for OSM.
I think that was for horses.. I came up with one for a pub/cafe/bakery IIRC.
I also assume there is little overlap between these two features - one meant
for horses near a stable and one found at a suburban dog park or busy shop.
I agree that it might not get used very much at all, but I would separate
something meant to secure a dangerous animal the size of a car and and
something you walk on a leash and could carry in your arms.
You have not seen large dogs then. A relatives dog would pull my arm off
running up hill .. and it was not large...
Bruny Island now has laws that cats must be on leashes or restrained inside a
car outside their property. Could mean that cats will need hitching too.
