I could never take my boys off leash anywhere! I wish I could but they would be gone in a second! Ive just resigned myself to having to keep them on leash all the time when outside. I don't know about you but it seems they think they are indestructable (even to motorcycles haha - my boys go spastic over motorcycles and airplanes (in the sky)) haha also they get distracted by every litttle thing and then its like a frenzy and they dont even hear my commands. Id be VERY careful taking your baby off leash outside ever! Just in case!!
