Walking 2, especially big boys like mine, is scary because it is difficult to pick them up quickly. Most large dogs easily jump to reach, so picking them up is no guarantee of safety. I have been jumped on when I picked up Max.
The park we go to is generally safe, but there is one dog owner who drives in every night with 3 unrestrained dogs hanging out of his car windows. Twice, his yellow lab has almost jumped out the window when they passed.
