    Interesting example Bofus, what we need to add to that is the fact that these dogs are trained for this activity and this is when the owners know the routine. Certainly when these dogs are taken to a different situation where appropriate they are leashed or crated. Reasonable people act reasonably. Unreasonable people make up wild scenarios and suggest that when you say you work your dog off leash at calculated times you really mean your dog is running loose 24/7 looking for an opportunity to disembowel 3 year olds.

    wow, were you working your dog off leash in controlled circumstances while entertaining your parents on your deck?

    Biddable dogs can be trained to be under voice and/or whistle control in the most chaotic environments. No controlled circumstances necessary.

    None of your leash opinions matter, there is no leash law on your private property. Go west seattle nannys anyway!

    Job, please reference where I mentioned “controlled circumstances” in this discussion. I don’t even know what that means. Do you really think you make a good point when you just make crap up?

    Nannies indeed Vincent…what took ya so long? We need another Aussie in the discussion.

    So I’m a troll and Moxiegirl’s a persecuted saint near as I can tell it isn’t the presentation it’s whether or not the board nanny brigade agrees with the stance.

    I can’t wait until you guys decide the turn signal law is a public safety issue and it too needs a neighborhood task force.

    “A dog that will do anything for you even if it means going against their own desire or comfort zone is a real asset.”

    that sounds nice but doubt you’d ever find a ‘biddable’ pit bull. it wasn’t a ‘biddable’ dog that came flying out of its front door at me and my little 15 lb. (leashed) dog. but, lucky for me it was a friendly pit bull. wasn’t sure at first though, judging from the frantic screams of the owner coming from the door.

    full tilt ….when? which one? want to see the new one?

    In my hypothetical someday home with a yard and less city and people that freak out about animals, my dogs will RUN WILD around my yard. So I guess I side with the “troll” on this one.

    Unless

    tart>dense moussie cake>some pie

    Warm apple/peach pie with ice cream>everything else in the whole world.

    Looks like the Bubba Gump Shrimp Boat got bored with his own post and left for open waters.

    I haven’t tried Tilt. Is it good?

    I see it all the time at Lincoln Park. People let their dogs roam free. Once I was casually sitting on a bench on the main head trail, the damm dog came right up to me and started barking loudly for no friggin reason. I was startled because I wasn’t expecting that. It also wasn’t leashed and I told the girl its supposed to be leashed here. She just shrugged her shoulders. I would love to ticket owners with dogs who aren’t leashed. Someone needs to be out there policing the dogs and owners. 4 out of 5 owners don’t have their dogs leashed in Lincoln Park. That’s a gold mine writing up tickets wise. I wonder how much the fine is with no leash on because it is a law isn’t it.
