You’re on a walk and you see a dog on a lead. Your dog is running free.

Q: What should you do next?
(Cue *who wants to be a millionaire* music).

Is it:
A: put your dog on a lead
B. Let your dog run over and say hello.
C: Shout “Don’t worry, he’s friendly.”
Or
D: What dog? You were playing candy crush.

The answer is…. A.

Did you get it right?

Many dog owners don’t. They don’t understand what a negatively life-altering situation a rogue dog can be for on-lead walkers.

Here’s why:

Dogs you don’t know could be on lead for 100s of reasons.

They could be blind.
They could be recovering from surgery.
They could be deaf.
They could be aggressive.
They might be scared of being approached by strangers.
They might be training.
They could be a service dog.
They may be a rescue.
They might be terrified of dogs they don’t know.
They could be elderly or physically vulnerable.
They might simply prefer to walk on lead.

In the end, it doesn’t matter why they are on a lead. It’s none of your business. But what is your business is CONSENT.

Leads are a little flag that say “don’t come close”.

When you see them, putting your dog on a lead is respectful. You show the other owner that you CARE about their choice and consent. It doesn’t matter if your dog has 100% perfect recall. You respect the other person and their dog enough to be courteous and kind to uphold everyone’s safety by making absolutely sure everyone is on a lead (no matter how much you trust your dog).

As a person who is often walking a dog on lead for all of many the reasons listed, I can’t tell you how my heart sings when I see someone extend this gesture to me and my pack.

Your dog has no right or business running up to ANYONE (dog or human) without clear PRIOR consent to do so.

You have a responsibility to ensure your dog is in control in a public place. Failing to recall is an offense. It counts as a dog out of control in a public place.

Hey everyone! We’ve got some very happy and some sad news too. So as you can see CD Dog training will be welcoming another member very soon, we’re so excited but unfortunately that does mean we will be stopping our services temporarily.

We’re still taking bookings for later on in the year and will be posting but for now we want to thank you so much and we’re looking forward to seeing you and your dogs soon.

Here is a walk with Hugo and General from a few weeks ago, as you can see in our walks we practice lots of skills such as recall, avoiding distractions and socialising with other dogs.

12/07/2021

Thanks everyone who came to our pack walk yesterday! It was really nice to see all the dogs socialising and great to see progress with dogs we’ve been training with.

09/07/2021

Last reminder about our pack walk this Sunday at 11.30 It’s a great opportunity for your dog to socialise with other dogs and to get some fresh air.

Thanks everyone!

This is Lev, he’s boarded with us in the past and is coming to stay with us again this weekend- we’ve enjoyed having Lev with us since he was just 13 weeks old and we’re looking forward to having him again this weekend!

Here’s Vinnie! He came and stayed with us earlier in the month so he could get used to our environment and feel comfortable before boarding with us last Saturday. He stayed for the day and night and as you can see had a great time!

We’re still offering boarding ensuring we’re in line with covid regulations so send us a message if you’re interested!

Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing well! We’re thinking of arranging a fun pack walk in the next few weeks, most likely on a Sunday. We find pack walks are a great way for dogs to socialise and can be great if you have puppies or dogs that are struggling with being around other dogs.

Leave a comment or send us a message if you’re interested, we’re excited to hear from you! 😆
