Please, please, please leash your dogs!! Even if they are outside for just a sec please leash them. I admit I’ve let my dog out for a quick p*e without a leash but I will NOT BE DOING THAT anymore after today. As a dog walker, watcher I am very responsible for the dog in my care and I take all measures to ensure the dog is secure and safe. Today I was walking one of my sweet clients and we came across 2 dogs not leashed in their yard, at the point I saw them it was too late to turn around. One dog caught sight of us and charged, at first it was nose to nose but that turned quickly. The owner tried to stop his dog but the other dog than acted. My dog was on leash they were not and he was protecting both himself and me. Thankfully there was no damage to either of us and he is fine. This was always my biggest fear when I started this I just have to hope people act as responsibly as I do with the dogs I’m with. so again please leash your dogs!
