[quote=Anonymous]I think the OP was right to be annoyed, and I have a dog and live on Capitol Hill. If you can't control your dog off the leash, i.e. stop them from running up and jumping at strangers, they shouldn't be off the leash. There are many people afraid of or uncomfortable with dogs. OP, I would just politely say, "I'm really afraid of dogs. Could you please get them away from me?" If it ends up being a recurring problem with a certain dog owner, then I would advise them that there are leash laws in DC. If they continue not controlling their dogs, I'd report them. Leash laws exist for everyone's safety and comfort and there are parks where you can take your dogs off the leash. Otherwise they should be on the leash or at least well-trained to the point where they play with their own or other dogs and leave strangers alone. The issue of dogs running up to you behind their fences is your issue to avoid. I'd just make note of where it happens and avoid those homes. [/quote]
