Our dog was attacked by an out of control off leash German Shepherd at the Heavenly Waters field today. My husband jumped in and was the one who ended up at urgent care. Why are people so reckless when they can’t control their pets?

Wow that’s terrible, I hope he’s okay. About 6 weeks ago my 1 year old and I were walking on the trail and someone was jogging with an off leash, no collar, pit. I love dogs, I love pits, but you never know what a dog, any dog will do. My mom was bitten recently by a dog being walked on a leash in her neighborhood. It really made me more aware and not to be trusting of all dogs and their owners, especially for the sake of my son. It is incredibly inscondierate and reckless to be on a public trail with a dog not on a leash. Please owners, coming from a dog owner, just leash your dogs... no matter how sweet they are.

The owner was there but she didn’t have the dog on a leash. No one had paper, pen, phone and my husband needed to get back to the car ASAP a couple miles away. She said the dog was up to date on shots. Hope so.

All Dogs can be unpredictable with other animals sometimes, that's generally why they are allowed one incident like this in their lifetime before they get recommended for being destroyed...... So sorry about this, was the owner around, do you know anything about the dog ??
