I am so tired of when people use very long dog leashes when they walk their dog through the park or anywhere in particular. Here are my two reasons why.
First off, when I am riding around on my motorized scooter and a long leash gets stuck in the wheel so I crash or have to stop. Also, most of the time they act like it is my fault! It’s not always when your on your scooter, long leashes act as tripwires even when you are walking and they are still as annoying.
Secondly, when dogs are on long leashes and they are untrained like they misbehave a lot, the owner can’t do much about it with a long leash when they start to do bad things. Lets say they run and knock into someone, you can stop that if you have a short leash. They also sometimes think they can do whatever they want because they feel like they are far enough away from their owner to not get in trouble when they do bad things.
In conclusion, long dog leashes are bad because they create tripwires and the owner has next to no control over their dog.
