I was paying extra attention to this the last 3 days and i noticed that about 8 of 10 people: hold their dogs close preemptively (most of the time nothing happens wiht those) dogs bork and need to be held back people cross to the other side

Is nobody bothering to properly train their dogs anymore? What is happening in the dog scene? is anybody else experiencing this?

    I don’t know why you are being downvoted. I was talking about this with another dog owner.

    People haven’t trained their dogs to walk at heel.

    You often see owners being almost dragged along pavements with the dogs on the road side.

    Dogs on a long leash while near a road or people.

    Etc etc

      Sounds like the issues you describe are more akin to humans not being trained to use a leash than dogs not being leash trained.
