 No dog should ever be off leash.....unless in their yard
In my opinion, no dog should ever be off leash unless in their own yard. Just last week a lady was walking her Yorkie, without a leash, and another dog attacked the Yorkie and killed the dog and injured the lady trying to protect her dog.
No dog, no matter how well trained, will at sometime take off because of something they see etc. and it takes only one time to have something happen, either hit by a car, attacked by another dog or get lost.
I love my pets tooooo much to place them in that danger. I have had trainers tell me never to let them run freely unless in their own yard. And there are too many lost dogs because of owners allowing this type of action.
Please be careful |
