More obedience training for dog and owner.
If the dog isn’t heeling, then the owner isn’t in control.
If the dog gets off the leash, then the owner isn’t in control.
You have a pit bull and you are not in control.

You said it all perfectly NSR! Strangers don’t know this dog and if I had an “exuberant” dog coming at me after getting out of the owners control, I would tend to get “aggressively” worried if my kids are with me and in the past I was the one who got the funny looks like “WTF man, my dog is an angel”. I wonder if this dog owner has seen what happens when a dog in heat is in the vicinity?
