I 'm walking my dogs on a trail that is for the most part off the beaten track.
It's not a specified walking trail for dogs or anything for that matter just a trail in the woods
that leads to an old forgotten camp ground .
My dogs are playing , sniffing around having a good time and I'm just sitting on a rock looking at some beavers.
I suddenly hear a scream and do mean a scream! (get away from me ,leave my dog alone )
I jump up and see a woman with a dog on a leash standing there screaming at my dogs and now at me.
I say to her calm down my dogs are both friendly or they wouldn't be off leash.
I call my dogs back over to me and now she's screaming at me yelling there's a leash law you know.
I tell her the reason people come down to trails in the woods is so they can let their dogs off a leash .
I say you drove past 2 specified dog walking trails where everyone does keep their dog on a leash to come here
and are now surprised that you ran into a couple of dogs off a leash.
Would you have handled it the same way or would you have put your dogs back on a leash. I refused and went back and sat on the rock ignoring her .
