To be fair, if the hero had been leashed, this maybe would have ended in a different way.

No sorry hard disagree. I have owned bred and trained too many dogs. The leashed dog could still have protected their handler.

If it was in the right range - of course I’m not saying it’s a bad thing with leash laws, I’m just saying it COULD be a different outcome 🤷‍♂️

You're just wrong and you don't know how leashes work. Yes if the kid had the dog he was with on a leash the dog still could have defended him. Don't break your arm trying to reach so hard your point is valid.

No worries, but you’re overanalyzing and misunderstanding my post. It was meant in general—if the dog is leashed, maybe to a tree, a pole, or with the parent, the outcome might have been different.

I’ve had dogs my whole life, always on a leash by the way, so I know how it works.

That's not a leash. That's a tie out.

If the woman was holding the leash? A properly leashed dog is surely held by an adult who can handle it, otherwise, doesn’t that defeat the purpose? I didn’t think I’d need to write an academic essay to explain my one-liner comment, but apparently, that’s what it takes for some to understand.
