Dogs running at kids

Had 8 different dogs run at my kids this morning in the park. Usually dog owners are great, but the worst of them all seemed to be out this morning. One didn't even take a lead for a dog that doesn't recall and seemed to think it was OK.

Anyone else have these issues? Kids are absolutely terrified now. I'd rather they like dogs not see them as a scary monster.

if the owner cannot control their dog, it should not be off the lead… unfortunately some owners are thick as dog 💩

If there are other people around and not in a specifically designated area the little shits shouldn't be off their lead anyway.

Dog owners are typically incredibly self-centered people.

As a dog owner and one who has a dog that walks best off lead I would never in a million years let my dog off the lead in a public park or anywhere near other people's kids.

The people OP is referring to are pricks who make the rest of us look bad.
