Our old staffie would be fine to walk off the lead at all times, but i never would unless i was in the park - as people before have said, you never know what they will see and if they dart off who knows what will happen, so keep him on the lead when you near the road.I just wish my two 7month old staffies would walk nice on the lead at the moment, but will get their soon, seeing a dog walk nicely on the lead looks heavenly at the moment to me.

enroll in obedience classes they will teach you to train your dog to heel with distractions.. but you should never walk near traffic off lead because anything could happen,,,, he could see a cat on the other side of the road and dart across the street in front of a car... this isn't a chance you really want to take is it?

Your dog will need four small meals a day and it'll decide when it wants a nap, a dog of this age will sleep loads. It have to be taken into your backyard/yard every hour, after it eats or drinks and when it wakes up after a nap. You must additionally take it out simply before you go to bed, at any time when you see it get rid of you ought to reward your dog. I exploit a trap phrase when my puppy has a pee, I say “get one” whilst it is urinating and “enormous job” when it passes faeces. In the event you do that your dog will pee on command when it is older. (except it’s bladder is empty) You should set your alarm and try to take your dog out about twice during the night time. If like me you're a heavy sleeper and also you don’t trust your self to wake up, take the lazy manner out. My puppy’s sleep within the laundry room unless they're toilet educated, for the period of the day I dip newspapers into the urine which it has passed in the garden and put these on top of a thick pad of newspaper at night, they're drawn to this due to the fact that of the smell and they are going to pee on this throughout the night time. However i go to bed very late and get up very early when i have a puppy. Finally your dog will go to the door when it knows that it desires to eliminate. In spite of the truth that I go away newspapers down at night time my dog’s are clean from an early age. However they are like babies, they have no control until they're older. Despite how diligent you are your puppy would still have an accident in the condo for the period of the day, it you see it stooping or peeing, opt for it up and let it conclude within the backyard/yard.

it is actually illegal to have a dog off the lead alongside roads,what if he sees another dog/cat/squirrel and darts off to chase,now he may be 99 per cent obedient at all times,but it only takes the once to cause an accident,get killed,why take that chance,
sorry,its probably not what you want to hear

Best keep him on a lead at all times as they can be unpredictable (all breeds I mean). My parents once had a bit.ch who permanently walked by our heels off the lead until one summer evening she took it into her head to chase a bicycle into the road with fatal consequences. For reasons known only unto herself she decided she no longer liked bicycles!

I tend to question your desire to have him off leash when walking near a road. No matter how well trained he is... another dog, or a cat shows up across the road and there is no way he won't go to investigate...perhaps before you even know the other animal is there. Then BOOM.. he is hit by a car...just because you didn't want to hold onto a leash.

Please don't take the chance of walking him off the lead near traffic. Apart from the fact it would only take a couple of seconds for him to get killed, if he caused an accident you could be liable for a bill of thousands. It's just not worth it.

you should always have him on a leash when in public. but if you want to teach him to stay right at your side you should stop when he goes ahead of you and make him wait till you re ready. ever time he goes ahead stop, or turn around and go the other way.he is trying to get you to follow him and you need to teach him to follow you.
