[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see this a lot but usually the people clip a leash on their dog before I reach them.  I have zero problem with that, because it's understandable that [b]they want their doggies to shake out their legs. [/b] I can only assume the ones who won't take control of their dogs fall under the same personality profile as the cyclists who refuse to be considerate. [/quote]

This.  Many dogs LOVE to be off-leash on trails.  My dog gets great exercise and stimulation trotting around off-leash, sniffing wherever he feels like.  My husband has my dog under voice control on trails, such that my dog will actually stop if he senses someone ahead.

I do not go off leash with my dog, because I do not have him under voice control, and he is more protective with me.  So, with me he's always leashed.[/quote]

Lol.  Until that day comes when -- for any one of a thousand reasons -- your dog doesn't listen to your husband and bites someone or causes an injury...[/quote]

It does not serve anybody well to imagine things that will never happen. If you have an anxiety that makes you think of every worse possible outcome all the time you should read Eckart Tolle.... the power of now. [/quote]
