Would you agree to have your dog temperament/obedience tested before it was allowed off the lead in public areas such as parks and nature reserves?
Personally I wouldn’t mind having my dogs assessed; the only disadvantage would be while you were training the dog and it couldn’t socialise off the lead.
Would this encourage people to train their dogs in basic things like recall on command? (One of my Dobes was attacked on three occasions and the owners had no ability/interest in recalling their dogs.)
Actually mine are all CGC titled and TT titled plus obed trained/titled to an AKC CD level so YES I am all for it. I would also prefer to pay for the use of a safe dog park where an attendant throws out nasty dogs and females in season plus kids.
