Taking Your Dog Off Leash on Trails

vets Gresham, OR

Do you like to take your dog on the trails for exercise? Sometimes it can be tempting to take your dog off-leash on the trails so he can run and have more freedom. This is OK as long as they permit it. Some areas will post signs that dogs must stay on a leash. If your dog is trained to come to you when called and will not run off, however, you may be able to let him off-leash inappropriate leash-free trail areas. You can practice with your dog by letting him off-leash for a few minutes at a time. Call him frequently to come back to you. Reward him. If your pup does not come back to you, gently call and convince him to return and them place him back on the leash since he didn’t listen well.
