So one of my friends just moved to a nice piece of property. There are tons of trails on it too! So we decided to take the dogs and check it all out. I let Bully off the leash (He's NEVER showed any aggression towards any animals, listens pretty well, and it was her private property).

Anyways...he never went more than 50 ft from me and always within eye-sight. He'd constantly come back to me too without me having to call him. I've never seen him run so fast or get the zoomies likes that! He even found a pond that he loves because there are very large rocks and concrete at the bottom (He doesn't like the sinking sand feeling ) Then the min I said "Lets go to the car" he ran up to it and sat!. I'm so excited because I finally found a safe place that he can enjoy! (and that wears him out!)

If anyone want to flame me about having my dog off the leash you can save it. I know how "pit bulls" are and he's truly and exception. My vet aways says "he's a sad excuse for a pit bull" because of how goofy he is and how submissive he is with other dogs." The only "unsafe" part of having him off the leash was some barb wire we found but we are going to clean that up before we go out again.

Aw sounds like fun! Makes me wish I lived out in the open and not in the middle of the city!

Sounds like you guys had a good time! I hope things will always go great for you, but just remember that no dog has 100% recall 100% of the time... how's his prey drive? If he sees a squirrel or rabbit, is he likely to take off after it, or does he pretty much ignore them?

that is awesome, I wish I had a place out here to let Goren loose to zoom but all my friends have horses and that would be to scary lol

if you have access to land, you might as well use it....

our dogs must be related somehow, when it comes up in conversation that i have a pitbull i always get that popular look or comment but i dont even try to explain anymore, its a waste of breath.

he'd never make on his own. He'll chase my friends chickens (He's always supervised with chickens) but after they are in the coop he cares less about them. If they stop running he walks away. He's ran away from a turtle before because it started moving

I take mine out to a safe wooded area for off leash play too. There is nothing like it. She gets so much enjoyment from being able to run full bore, and I get a kick out of her zoomies. It wears her out better than any other activity we do. And she always stays within about 50 feet from me too, coming back frequently to check in. Love it!!
