[NAGDU] Just out of curiosity

Folks don't keep dogs on leash why would you want to do that loll.
I hate it when they think that their dog needs to sniff mine, when mine 
is in harness.
My dog gets so strong that it is hard to control her.
I do obedience because I don't know what else to do when this happens.
One lady one time decided that it was a good thing to get out of her 
car and have her dog see mine.
I was angry.
They tell me I am not a friendly person, and they are rite when I am 
trying to keep my dog in control, and they don't have a clue what clue is.
I don't have many places that I can walk the dog.
We do stores things like that, and I try to get the dog out early 
morning, before the middle of the day is way to hot to walk anyone.
When the park is not full as it is at night she will try to do her best.
Because she doesn't like obedience in front of people.
That is embarrassing to her.
sometimes take Krokus to a dog park.  I go with a sighted friend, and 
she only goes when a dog walker she knows will be there.  The dogwalker 
keeps careful control of what is happening in the dog park, and steps 
in immediately if any trouble starts brewing.  Krokus seems to enjoy 
it.  He mostly sniffs around, though, instead of running and playing, 
like I thought he would.
