Gah I know exactly how you feel. Sometimes when I walk Major there are stray dogs around and he gets SOO excited. Especially when the dogs come and follow us, I can barely do anything. Sometime I have to pick him up and walk him a while before the other dog finally leaves. Just tonight I was walking Major and I got pissed off. I took him while I went on my bike, this is only the second time I've done this.

I want to train him to be good on the bike, so I was taking it slow and all, when all of a sudden his little border collie friend comes running out of nowhere, and if I hadn't seen it, I'm sure I could have been yanked off the bike and more than one of us (2 dogs and I) would have been hurt.

The border collie puppy was on a walk with her owner and family, but off leash because she USUALLY follows. Keyword being usually. I really don't like that at all.
