[quote=Anonymous]If you can pick up your dog, that means you have the strength to control it, right? I use a shorter, double handled, padded leash with a harness that clips in front, and use the extra control to physically restrict contact with other dogs in potentially explosive situations. My dog is heavy and reactive to certain dogs but not others (it's hard to tell before they start growling at each other), so if I see him perking up in an aggressive way, I get as far as possible from the other dog, and use the double handles to stop him from rushing at the other dog. I wouldn't worry about the legal aspects of this. Focus on reading his body language and having all the tools at your disposal to control him. [/quote]
