The statement "Leashed dogs are less likely to bother other dogs and humans" is a sound reason to support a leash law for dogs.

The statement "Leashed dogs are less likely to bother other dogs and humans" is a sound reason to support a leash law for dogs. This is because a leash law ensures that dogs are kept under control and restricted to a certain area, reducing the likelihood of them approaching or bothering other dogs and humans.

To arrive at this answer, you would evaluate each statement and determine if it provides a valid reason for supporting a leash law. The first two statements are not relevant to the topic of having a leash law for dogs and involve personal preferences. The third statement of everyone else living in a town with a leash law does not provide a reasonable argument for having a leash law in a particular location. However, the fourth statement clearly states a valid reason by highlighting the benefit of leashed dogs being less likely to cause trouble for other dogs and humans, making it a sound reason to support a leash law.
