Reddit Thread Shows How Important It Is To Leash Dogs In Public, No Matter How Well Trained They Are

by Maryjane

Oh, congrats... You now have a puppy. You must be looking forward to many enjoyable days playing with her and going for walks, feeding her, showing her how to roll over, and going for strolls.

I’m sure you want to spend time with her on the couch, and yes, you would also like to take her on walks. Do you notice a pattern?

Dogs demand frequent walks. They must also go outside to "do their business," which is to urinate and defecate.

However, it goes beyond that as dogs need to exercise frequently. They require a way to get rid of excess energy and interact with other dogs.

This is where the dog park comes in. As walks are a significant component of your dog's daily routine, the leash is an essential canine item.

The OP in today’s post made it clear that everyone should keep their dog "leashed in public at all times, no matter how well trained you think he/she is." Find out more below.
