As dog lovers we are part of a universal group. The dog hiker at your local park can represent everyone. If a walker or somebody having a picnic at their local park is stressed just a couple of times by an uncontrollable hound then their view about dog hikers will become contaminated.
A good dog walker is deferential to other park users. They share the park with respect and have their dog in hand at every point. The responsible dog lover knows the accepted rules which we all should stick to to respect people in the dog walking area.
A dog which has not learned social manners around other people should be on the leash unless he has wonderful recall. It isn't alright to permit a dog with no regard for how pleasant his intent, to leap all over strangers. This type of behavior can cause fear and injury. It's miles better to assume that everybody you meet is scared of your dog than allow one frightened person to be terrified.
Your dog should be in hand when getting close to a dog already on the leash. The other dog could be shocked or fear aggressive and because of being on the leash, have no escape. Unless invited by the owner of the leashed dog it isn't all right to allow your own canine to approach. The dog could be in coaching to triumph over fear issues and your dog rebounding up to him can firstly wreck the training and second really frighten him.
Dog mess should be picked up and ditched. It's not fair to expect others to walk thru your dog's poop. By dumping the mess in areas where it is likely to become a hazard to health or well being you are respecting both the area and folks sharing it.
