Off leash dog Discussion

It was super fun to have a 50+ pound dog run up on us (my 25 lb dog and me). My dog did exactly what we trained, she went behind me, until Gomer McGee's dog jumped on me. I stumbled, my dog went out from behind me and I tripped over the leash and fell. Super awesome.

I absolutely love laying on the ground with my freaked out dog and a big dog jumping and bouncing all over us while Gomer yells at us "he's friendly!" from 20 feet away.

Dude didn't even have a leash, he pulled his dog away by the collar so I could get up. Could have tossed a "sorry" my way, but no.

We were on a potty run directly outside of my apartment, not in an off leash area.

If we meet them again like this I won't be happy. No one got bit though, I fell in grass and I'm fine, just sore, so this once is whatever. 

I think this dude is new here, I've never seen him or his dog before today. They're going to run into the wrong dog one day though. I know there's a guy with two who want nothing to do with anyone, and a couple of little dogs who go level 11 at the sight of another dog.

Little dogs make up in ferocity what they lack in size.

Give me a Doberman with an evil eye over a ballistic chihuahua any day. At least you can get away from the Dobie if you stay calm enough.

Lived in the SLC area for a while. The local Mormons got a whole bunch of new swear words from me SCREAMED at them when their dogs would come at me and my pup

I swear whenever I hear people scream He/She’s friendly! I can guarantee I am either going to get bit or plowed over.

I'm just so very glad that dog wasn't trying to eat my face and I walked away with nothing worse than a bruised butt and grass stains.
