Hi i have a large working dog who is around 5
i like taking her everywhere, i live in toronto, my dog sits at cafes or patios with all my friends and just hangs out with everyone,
BUT some people have dogs off leash, some dogs are good and wiill walk by but not all, my dog can be around dogs, but there are some dogs she might not get along with beccause they are animals, like cats, when on a leash especially we do not know what is g oing through their head. My dog was attacked a few times but showed she can handle herself well and will bite to defend herself.
Me and a groupd of friends were hanging on a patio and someones off leash cute little dog came, but i had my dog around so i said NO! becuase the dog wanted to see us, the good dog listened and went off
Its illegal to have dogs with no leash, well the dogs owner was a big strong looking drunk man, and he started arguing with me while he was walking away saying i own a monster and should be muzzeled, and that leash laws are only meant for dogs like mine and not his, so obv i said how about i call the police and lets find out who is breaking the law? He was so drunk he was stumbling.
Well he ended up telling me i need a muzzle more than my dog and just left.
I am tired of those situations tho, when we yell at another dog or try to shoo it away from us the owners get so angry. But we are only trying to protect the other dog, if it is a small dog.
ANother thing is i saw some huge rotties while walking in that area that poor small dog is going to turn into a snack with no leash . On top of this that same day a few blocks away we saw a pair of coyotes.
I dont know why but there are soooo many coyotes in toronto now.
