I have real issues with letting toby off the leash, after losing my dog to old age i am just so terrified that something will happen to toby.... my parents run their dogs up in "tomato fields" which is basically a hUGE field to run in, they go before the sun is up so there are no snakes around..... i want someplace like that ! the only place that we have that is enclosed is the pool area in our apartment complex (and people are jerks when it comes to toby, because he is sooooooo happy to see everyoen) so, I have to wait till the area is vacated by the people sunbathing to even get any time in. I really want to train toby off leash, but there is no where to do it
I let him run up our apartment stairs without a leash because i felt bad, he was so excited when we were heading over to the pool
