Dose of Dog S3 #10 - "Its okay, he's friendly"

Picture this scenario. You are out and about with your dog perhaps, walking in the neighborhood, and along comes another human with their “off-leash” dog who comes charging. “Its okay, he’s friendly” is likely what you’ll hear and many times nothing bad happens. However, potential does exist for injuries. Heather gives you the dos and don’ts that you should do. Both for the person with the leashed dog and those of you who go off-leash. She gives some tricks, including a neat one involving umbrellas. Also, effective ways to use treats. Recommendation: Download the “Sniff Spot” app before your next dog walk.
