I usually trust my Plott off-leash, especially when we are in open fields or wooded areas. However, I’m cautious around busy streets.

I have a pretty good level of trust with my Plott off-leash, especially in secure areas. They have a great sense of smell, so as long as I keep an eye on them, they usually stick close. I’ve noticed that maintaining a strong bond through training helps build that trust. When we go hiking, I let them roam a bit in safe spots, and they love it! However, I always keep a leash handy in case we encounter other wildlife.

I don’t fully trust my Plott to be off-leash. They have a curious nature and could wander off easily.
