My Golden Mountain Dog, Hannah, was easy to train so I'm fortunate - she has great recall, walks alongside us, and does not approach other dogs too quickly (I trained her myself). I am happy to follow your guidance on how your pet is best walked and cared for. I would never approach other, new-to-us dogs too quickly, remove their leash unless you're comfortable with that - happy to do trips to off-leash parks or light hikes and trail walks, relaxing in the park etc. Have a vehicle and happy to drive to our favourite trails or dog friendly beaches with your permission! I typically use bells on my bernese for any off-leash trail walks and ensure our pup is always in sight of me, although I know she has good recall I don't know what kind of other animals and dogs she will encounter so I am always nearby. If you are not comfortable with your dog going off leash, I am available for lengthy walks to exercise them and will follow your instructions. I only change the tone of my voice for scolding, and reward good behavior with treats. I create neutral space with new dogs that don't seem too excited to meet me, allowing them to come to me and won't pressure them with treats or force affection on them. An animals trust must be earned. On hot summer days, I always have water with and ensure we spend time in the shade (bringing a shade tent with if necessary). Pets are allowed on my furniture in my apartment, however if you don't allow them on yours at home I will maintain consistency!
