[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In this in stance if the dog was on a leash it wouldnt have made much difference. The child approached it, it gave a warning growl and then jumped at her face. Same thing could have happened if it was leashed.

My 4 year old was walking next to me on the sidewalk next to the school at dismissal. A man was standing there with a leashed medium sized dog, talking to a neighbor.  My child smiled at the dog (no more, no less) and the dog snarled, jumped & lunged at his face. Owner had a tight, short hold on the leash and was able to pull him back.

I thank God that this man had the sense to leash him, or that dog would have absolutely bit my child in his face or worse.

What angered me most was that even if the dog was supposedly "gentle", why or why would anyone choose to walk their dog outside a school during dismissal, leashed or not.  It is just asking for trouble.

Don't even get me started about the young couple who would walk their pitbull on a long leash by the school right at dismissal.  Really?  Simply irresponsible.[/quote]

Yes!!! I don't walk my dogs on the street until 6pm...away from kids. My dogs are friendly but it's too much to have to pay attention to children and what my dog is doing. We are supposed to be on a leisure walk not won that is chaotic .[/quote]. What changes at 6pm???[/quote]
