If everyone walk their dogs leashed instead letting them run free, alot of unpleasant incidents and misunderstanding could be avoided. Use the long retractable leash or a long line (commonly use in intermediate and advance obedience training) cos you want them to enjoy the open space.

There are non-aggresssive dogs that doesn't like to be bothered (whether by people or dog) by over zealous ones. When owners of those happy go lucky ones don't take charge of their dog, their nosiness often become an irritation to the other dog and trigger a confrontation and a fight.

Think about it, you wouldn't let a stranger pat you or sniff your backside would you?
