to want to jog in a dogs off lead zone but not have them follow me?

[FieldJogger]

sorry another dog one, see quite a few lately. i like to jog daily in a nature reserve trail and it is a dogs off lead zone between certain points, which is fine and i do like dogs. the issue i have is a lot of them run with me sniffing etc and some don't even attempt to call them away, some do and they don't listen etc etc

a man called out this morning to ask me to stop so his dog would stop chasing and this has i admit never happened in the times i have been but i did and i told him that im entitled to run and if his dog cant be called away he should be on a lead and he got annoyed telling me to "not jog in a fucking dogs off lead zone". i then just continued and his dog kept following but soon stopped and turned around.

who is actually wrong here?

Of course she’s entitled to tell them to have a dog on lead when they have poor recall.

So many entitled dog owners.

No, you and your dog belong in a fenced off dog park and you shouldn't be inflicting it on the general public

If you can’t control your dog keep her on a short lead and away from the public.

Owners need to be able to control their dogs otherwise they shouldn’t be off lead! Numerous times I’ve been out with my dog (who stays on the lead and is muzzled because she’s vicious with other dogs). Idiots let their off-lead dog approach her and are upset when she attacks them.

Dogs are supposed to be under the owner's control at all times. If the dog isn't trained to respond to the owner's commands it shouldn't be off the lead
