Default Problem: Cycling with Dog

I just started riding with my dog Galya. He is about 7 months and is trained well enough to walk/run at my side consistently. However, dogs can be triggered and excited by certain things so I use a "gentle leader collar" to assist me in case he tries to pull away. With a normal collar he would pull the whole bike off the road.

On another note. I have been receiving a lot of bad attitude from onlookers. People shake there heads and give dirty looks at me. Today I confronted two separate people and asked what there issue was. Both said that they were "dog lovers" and thought that what I was doing was cruel because it was dangerous.

Anyone have anything similar happen to them? Or any tips on how to be safer when riding with Galya?

Thanks,
