Does seem a bit dangerous. (and I'm not sympathetic to dogs off leashes on paths). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10988#post-122996 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 09:38:15 +0000 gembo 122996@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes, the tone was much less hectoring and more matter of fact than it would be in our local chip wrapper.</p> <p>If dog was on lead they might all have been together which might or might not have made a difference.</p> <p>Dogs very random, owners very varied in their attitude, some call to heel, some don't bother.
