Oh man can I identify with that. Has happened so darn many times. Thank God for the "up elevator"..I used to walk both of them when I had a double lead but after so many instances of other dogs ...I had to stop that. Now that I have three it is even more difficult the walking..Luckily we have a big yard.

One other point in defense of harnesses; We were walking in a park and a very friendly looking Lab mix raced up dragging his Flexi leash and attacked one of our boys. Fortunately my husband was able to haul him up like a fish using the leash and his Puppia harness. Had he not been able to do that I am sure Rico would have been bitten more severely or my husband would have been injured reaching down to grab Rico.
