there is no requirement to keep dogs on a lead, only under close control (whatever that might mean). Some dogs are so well trained they don't need to be kept on a lead in order to be under control. If the dog will always instantly respond to command (and react correctly) they are considered to be under close control. It is up to the owner to decide whether or not the dog is trustworthy enough to be allowed off the lead - and up to the legal system to decide how wrong they are when it all goes horribly wrong. ;-) DaveD [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
