Do you let your dog off lead ?

Yes all the time he comes back when u shout him hes dead good had him off a lead since he was about 16 week old never ran off

yeah sometimes down on the beach when its quiet

memphis is starting to get trained off lead at the min but just between me and the oh when no distractions around

I've clicked 'sometimes', but actually he gets let off the lead every day, I just have to be careful when. He's a pain with other dogs - if he sees one he's off & I can't get him back! If there's no one around I'll let him off & he chases around like a mad thing, especially if I take his boomer ball. I have to be careful with other dogs cause although he's been socialised he doesn't like all dogs, and it doesn't take much to set him off.

I let Blue off when I can.....normally to play fetch as he needs something other than on lead walking to drain the energy he has.

Ty gets let off if no other dogs/ppl are around to distract or if we no the other dog is friendly. Kaos is using training lead at the mo and is let off if no distractions x

We let Gizmo off all the time and he is great as long as we have a ball. In fact, he is a joy to take out. Vinnie however is very different and we don't have him off lead as if he gets the scent of something he is gone and he also will run up to other dogs. He is really friendly but others don;t know that.

A was for a while but kuma thought 5 mins before a got picked up for work she would bolt for a little jack russel in the park today She put in the dog house and hasnt came near me since a got home just looking at me like sorry

she will give you that look until the next time, their clever little f...k..s when they want to be

Yep always. He's very responsive when he's off the lead. Even more so than when he's on it >.>

I let my pair off either in my allotments or the tennis/football/basketball course anywhere else is either to near traffic or idiot dog owners. you know there is nothing here in caerphilly for dog except vets no dog parks no nothing, i'v been trying to get one up where i live but how to go about it, i aint got the foggiest.

no never, i have been asked too many times by the local traveller types if i would consider breeding from or selling her i am not willing to take the risk. And i know if something catches he eye she will run and run, her hearing is starting to go. She is ok in enclosed areas but large open spaces i do not think she would hear me calling her back.

Pleased to say that we had both the dogs off lead yesterday when out of no where a big cross breed came bounding over straight up to the dogs. It was a proud moment when Ty completley ignored it and carried on playing with his toy and kaos had a sniff and a tail wag and came staright back to me the second he was called without any fuss! Proud mummy!! x

give them a pat on the head from me good lads

Not all the time if there is no other dogs around I will let him off but Ty is a little bugger if he sees a dog he likes the look of he is off like a shot. I took him to a huge grassy area over the weekend and let him off as there were no other dogs and the little bugger still ran off after a few times of me calling him he finaly came back but I wont be doing that again! The little man is going to obediance classes in the new year so hopefuly we will get this sorted.

Kuma never come's back when you call her ! a need to find a big stick hope all the other dogs dont chase me with it and trap her with a sticj when she gets the stick grab her caller and thats her fun finished lol she also when on the lead with certain folk will pull so hard shes up on her back legs trying to lick then nibble there fingers if she knows there treats there.. It's a pain but is no classes near me and the one that is closeest is &50 a class? for an hour and that isnt proof to me that she will learn and do as she is told?

Sometimes,depending on where we are.If up the field,shes always let off.

down on the old railway line we let him off all the time if there is no one else about same as when we are over the feilds he is very good off the lead and doesnt wander to far and never runs off i just keep on or put him back on the lead when there is other people about with dogs.

yes......
you have to with a staff it the only way you can try and naker them out.....

the only time i have mine on the lead is when we walk down the road to the park....then its off and away they go
but then mine are very good they do com back when i call them so that makes it easyer...

Dempsey's getting better. I have a 'control' distance of around 15' from me to him, and about 50' from him to another dog. As long as we're within the dostances I can either call him back, or tell him to stay & he does.

I let my girl off shes 12 and likes to be close by, I dont let the dog off but i have a 25ft lunge line that hes on that so he can mooch around safely near me. But when im with the horses there is a enclosed area about half an acre he runs around like mad in there

Buster only gets off lead if there are no dogs around, or if the dogs present are friends of his. He gets too dominant with strange dogs. I have to be very careful, there is a dog around here that Buster hates and would love to get his paws on.

I selected 'sometimes'.

Rocco will come off for a run every day, Dixie will come off if there are no dogs around as will deano, He is going through a weird nervous stage at the moment, so if there are people or other dogs around hegoes back on lead. I'd rather be safe - I don't think h would actually do aything, but a lot of people wouldn't take to kindly to being barked at by a dog!

Mine are off lead everyday ,have to for them to get the exercise ,but i have to put Holsten on lead if theres another dog about ,he's da from being attacked as a puppy by a fully grown male staff x .It's a pain i have to find quiet areas away from other dog walkers ,but a majority of them are d###s anyway who have'nt got a clue about dogs and i won't put my dogs in that position again
