I hike with my dog off-leash every day, but I do it in a remote area. I've run into other people only twice, and both times they had off-leash dogs too. We saw each other from a quarter mile away, recalled our dogs, and leashed them. I think I'm behaving in an appropriate manner.
Are you saying that you see people walking their dogs without leashes in the city? Because that's just crazy!
I can't imagine having a dog off-leash in an unfenced urban area. That's just crazy! Even the best trained dog in the world can have a spaz out moment which ends in tragedy.
