I only need to see it one time, and then I don't care. When I see the dog loose at a slow speed, I judge the dog. Then they can do what they want, how they want, and I do my thing. It is possible some think I am judging the dogs at a run, but in the end, it is the slow loose lead pass that influences me. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
