To the man in the park who, when he saw my dog ragging his own lead, and my pup excitedly barking at him doing this, felt the need to comment 'nasty little things'-
The dog on the lead is a rescue who we have had five years. I don't think he had been mistreated, but has fear aggression issues with certain dogs.. We live in a heavily dog-populated area (near several parks), keeping him away from other dogs is nearly impossible, and more particularly, ensuring other over-enthusiastic dogs get the message. He is either muzzled off the lead, or walked on a lead which makes him worse. We have taken advice of numerous behaviourists, and this is the best tactic we have found. Trying to stop him ragging the lead can often result in him becoming more infuriated....
The pup is our 18month old very happy well-adjusted girl, and friends with everyone in the park.
Please think twice about passing comment until you know the full facts....
