off leash walk was a success

this was towards the end so she’s more lazy, but i’m so proud of her:) she listens quite well off leash compared to last year now that she’s over 2!

Even as someone who uses off leash dogs for work (chasing geese) we 100% don't do it near roads even with our most veteran dogs. It's just too much risk for no reason. Save it for a park or field or something like that.

Even without being concerned for traffic you've no way to control it if it runs. My dog partner is very well trained, but he'd absolutely run up to another person's dog if he were off leash. He's nice and very friendly and loves playing, but I don't know that about the dog He'd be running to.

Cute dog and I'm sure you mean well, but please don't do this
