Never ceases to amaze me how many dog owners in off leash area's just think its totally ok to have their dogs run at or approach people and somehow think that its the other persons fault.
Part of the bylaw states "Dogs must be under their owner's control at all times. In off-leash areas, this means dogs must be able to respond to their owner's voice, sound or visual commands. This will help protect your dog from unforeseen hazards such as cars, unfriendly dogs or coyotes."
If your dog is running towards another person or child, you have to be verbally able to control it and stop it approaching. If you can't demonstrate that level of control, then your dog has no business being in a off leash area.
