[QUOTE="Fran, post: 398806, member: 3"] Susie, as you know I am my dogs "mom" and the alpha. They are big and a handful if not trained properly. I walk them in the woods. The rules of the trails is that dogs are to be leashed. It's pretty remote and isolated. Of course, someone always thinks the rules are for other people. I don't have a problem if they are an arms lengthe from the owner and in control. I was walking all 3 when 3 large dogs were running through starting barking and coming at us. I thought, "what am I going to do in the middle of 6 big dogs?" The kids came along and I gave them an earful. It was a few moments before the parents came along. Their dogs weren't aggressive but who knows that when they are running at my dogs. I know I'm not going to intentionally hurt a dog. I ordered an air horn from amazon.com and I carry it in my jacket pocket. I figure it will startle them enough to scare them or their owners. No damage to the dogs and I feel a little less vulnerable. You don't want to know what I think about people who allow their dogs to be roaming free where they can get hurt by a car or someone who was startled by the loose dog that they would shoot them or burn them with pepper spray. I'm sorry for thank you. He shouldn't have to be made afraid to be outside. [/QUOTE]
