That's the down side to this breed, i just take mine to a field that empty or the beach.
Leo i cannot trust at all but flick i have under control unless the another dog come to us then it's get her on the lead, and hold tight.
Even though my 2 dogs are DA, it does'nt mean there classed as dangerous dogs, as i've got my eye on the ball all the time. when i'm out more so than any one else. It does make for hard work but then i don't know of any other dogs that work , play so hard around me. Every one elses dogs just look so boring.

They do everything but play nice with other dogs but thats not a bad thing from a perspective.

I don't think me or my family have ever had a dog that is friendly with other dogs they don't know.......... (just read some of the michief here) well they either want to fight... or do the other thing lol.... what's more most of them were non bull breeds.. tbh **touch wood** we've never had any to doos with the bullies when out and about..... probably because we're very cautious with our bull breeds because of the trouble our non bull breeds (labs, weimers, luchers, collie crosses ect..) have gotten us and themselves into lol

All so much for bullies being dangerous LOL! :nana:

i've had a number of instances with my two lately!!! on the last occassion i had a friend with me and i also had a break stick and i was able to stop my two staffords playing tug o war with a hungarian viszla (gundog) the poor owner was screaming like a banshee (as any one would be) my mate wasn't much use either! I managed to get one off but my bitch wasn't for letting go!! after a while, i managed to get her off after being draged through the mud and dogs muck! i told my friend to keep hold of my male, while i desperately held on to my bitch, the poor woman could tell the situation wasn't good and quickly went off. to be honest i didn't think i was going to be able to hold onto my bitch as i was exhausted and she wasn't yet finished and wanted back into the fray!
I now will only walk one dog at a time, always on a lead, never without my trusty break stick and i also carry a length of broom stick to ward off other dogs. Though i walk my dogs in a harness, i always keep a thin strap-like collar on them so it can be used as a handle to restrict the head movement when other dogs come close, also the collar can be used on a dog that has hold of another by the skin and used as a tourniquet to choke the dog off, a (breakstick) would be off no use if a dog has a skin hold as the jaws are almost closed. After a number of instances i no longer leave anything to chance and if a situation does arise , try to make sure it isn't my fault. i now only allow free running with my dogs in the dead of night on farmland.
