What a terrible experience! In the end I have to say, it's great to hear your dog won this one out!

Nearly every house in our neighborhood as dog's so there's always atleast 1 every other block walking or one every 4 blocks off leash. Our very next door neighbor has a GSD that I haven ever seen tethered nor collared, unless walking her and even then I'm surprised they don't "walk" her off leash! When we first got Sophie we had them "meet" but ended up cutting that short as my neigbor didn't have his dog leashed/collared and she consistantly growled and snapped at Sophie. These are the type of people that correct there dog by saying " Oh stop being so rude Clover(gsd)!". She snaps at my dog's at our boarding fence and that is their way of correcting everytime. I assume this is why they just let her in the front now but it's bullshit we have to look before we even take our dog's out of the house. We are moving in 2wks, thankfully.

Because of all the dog's we now drive 10mins to a new industrial park that only has a few buildings. Walk them on 20ft lead's and we are all happy. Out of 20 times going there we've seen one dog in the distance and had maybe 5 car's pass us. Much easier with 3 dog's than coming across strange dog's every few blocks.
