hi in answer to your questions our dog will walk towards them as if stalking then rush up to the other dog/dogs have a sniff and maybe a growl but will then play, doesn,t like small black dogs or terrier type ones, i think with a young dog letting him off the lead would best be done away from roads etc as they have no sense off danger and will run in the road regardless of cars. coming back to the owner is the problem as they tend to please themselves WHEN and IF they come back. depends on how voice trained they are. it was a while untill we let ours off and that started in an enclosed field. he now walks free along the canal for miles and he won,t stray to far.
