Is this the reason why so many are abused and surrendered?? This why people let the cuteness get in the way of who should be the pack leader with these dogs!!
1ST... I use harnesses on all my dogs

2nd... it is not in place of training, just a little added security in an unfamiliar or unsafe place.

I agree with training totally, but in an situation that could prove unsafe I like the added security of the leash. For example, when traveling with my dogs they always have a leash on in the car, I just don't want a frighten dog to forget training and jump out or away from me when stoping at a rest stop or the like.
