Respect Other Pedestrians When Walking Your Dog In The Street For The First Time
Your puppy will be curious with every new person that comes across his path. The natural instinct of most puppies is to pull you toward a person to say "hello." Don't make the mistake as a puppy owner by assuming every person on the street will be just as excited about your puppy as you are. Not every person is a dog lover. Many people don't like dogs and some people have serious allergies to dogs. Other people may think your puppy is adorable, but may be in a hurry and not have time to greet your puppy.
Respect the space of others. Why let your puppy get away with something that most parents wouldn't allow their toddlers to do? Make it a rule never to let your puppy pull toward strangers. By letting your puppy pull towards people, you are setting a pattern for your puppy to pull you along to greet any person. You're teaching your puppy that he can control you.
If someone is interested in saying "hello" to your pup, then place your pup in a sit to keep him from jumping up. Move out of the traffic flow so pedestrians don't have to maneuver around you. It's also a good idea to watch for senior citizens on the street. Many don't appreciate a puppy taking a sudden jump on them. If you see a person approaching with a cane or a walker, particularly on a narrow street, be considerate and move to a safety zone area and let the person pass. If you are passing from behind, slow your puppy and give direction to the person ahead on which side you intend to pass. Use a calm voice to warn them if you are passing on their left or on their right, and tell your puppy "On by" as you pass.
Pedestrian traffic will be coming towards you on your left side, so always give your puppy less of a lead when people are approaching. I have often seen pedestrians get their legs tied up in a puppy's long lead. When approaching a group of people on the street, don't try to negotiate your way through them. You are better off moving to a far side of the sidewalk, or into an alcove of a storefront and waiting for the group to pass. Eventually, after many walks with your dog � he will become accustomed to your routine and avoid confusion when out in the public.
