I live in a very heavily wooded community, when I walk Cody around my community I am checking behind me to make sure no dog got loose and coming up behind us as has happened years ago, then eyes peeled on the woods for coyotes, and checking the sky for hawks. The community road is wide, very easy for swoop, snatch and fly off. For this reason we don't do a lot of walks. I walk him mainly in case he should get out of the house "maybe" he would find his way home. Cody is always in my sight, never left alone on the deck, but as careful as we are, things can happen.
Always better safe then sorry.
