Does your dog on a leash when you take him/her for a walk?
Always, if they dont, and they see a cat or squirrel... o_o that would be some bad luck.
I answered for Happy, she is almost never leashed, no need I can control her ten times better with just my voice then I can with any leash, Misty is fine walked off leash in some areas, for example I dont leash her on the bike path or back allys, I only leash her on the streets. the other 3 are kept leashed exept when in parks.
If Zoey goes for walks on th e road she always has a leash on, If she is at a show she never has one on or at agility practise.
T.j never has a leash on because no matter what he is right by my side.
Well, I don't have a dog, but when I take my neighbour's dog, Bonnie, for walks, I always keep her on a leash. I would like to let her loose in a park, and she probably wouldn't do anything bad, but I'd be scared of losing her. If she was my dog, then I would, it's just that she's not as used to me as she is to her owners, and if she began to wander off she might not come back to me. I think it's great to see dogs having fun off leash in the park though:)
I always take them for walks with leashes on! Especially since I live in the city, there is NO WAY I'd even think about walking them leashless, waaay too many dangers for me to feel comfortable!
Yes, because it's the law and my dogs are untrustworthy off leash except for Tango. I'd rather not have to pay $250 for not leashing my dog. Tango is SO much better off leash. She listens to my every command and focuses on me and nothing else, on leash is a whole other story. She's perfect 'til she sees/hears another dog and there are a lot of dogs around here...
So she'd listen to you if she was off leash when she sees another dog and wouldn't when she's on leash?Quote:

That describes Tango perfectly.Quote:

Always. Molli cannot be off leash because she'll run away, and Sam will run after any other person or dog he sees and I'm afraid he'll get hit by a car. It's always safer to keep your dogs on a leash.
Thats EXACTLY how Rebel is on a leash. We are working quite a bit to correct it not though.Quote:

Both of my boys are on leashes when they are on walks. I know that Frisk would behaive wonderfully without a leash, but its a rule in town that your dogs must be on a leash at all times when in public.
So leashes for both of them. :D
Nope.. no need for leash and collar.
live out in the middle of no where and our property is fenced in. :)
