Just saw this on a relative's FaceAche page:
I'd no idea that this was a well-known signal (like white stick for blind people, white wtick with red bands for deaf and blind people). I've seen a few of these, and thought that they were just high-visibility leads.
How long has "YELLOW LEAD MEANS DON'T APPROACH" been around?
It seems a lot of people, including dog owners, don't understand what they see here... I'm not referring to Luna, a big vicious GSD 🤣🤣 (not really ), or the Halti around her muzzle, or her gorgeous feed-me eyes. Look at her lead, its YELLOW!! YELLOW LEAD MEANS DON'T APPROACH - no matter how friendly your dog is, get hold of it. I'll move to a safe place so you can pass, I'll manage my dogs behaviour, I'm working really hard to keep my dog and your dog safe. Help me out a little. If you see a yellow lead/harness/collar RECALL YOUR DOG, give the person a couple of seconds to put their management protocol in place (it won't make you late for work) and we can all enjoy our walks. I'll say a massive thank you every single time, because I really appreciate the support.
If you could share this, I'd be very grateful. Xxx
