| Thank goodness the group of idiots didn't have a rott because they sound like the worst dog owners, inconsiderate and irresponsible.
Here's a story for you:
I was at the beach during the off-season when dogs are allowed off-leash and I was playing frisbee with my 2 pits when this huge pit bull runs over. The owner is nonchalantly walking down the beach towards us. I'm holding my male by his harness and my female is standing in front of me. The dog proceeds to pee on my female for the second time and I gently nudge him with my foot as I tell him to stop.
The owner who is still taking his sweet time to arrive on scene yells at me about kicking his dog and I figure he's joking because the dog hardly moved as
I used no force because he was just being annoying and I wanted his attention.
The guy arrives and Emily greets him. He asks how would I like it if he kicked my dog and proceeds to kick her and she yelps at which point I am ready to attack this moron.
I tell him that his dog had peed on mine twice and he tells me I know nothing about dog behavior because this is a sign of dominance. (I know more about dogs than he ever will.) I wonder how the reason makes it okay and think to myself, thank goodness I didn't have my dad's rottweiler because she never would have tolerated being urinated on.
He goes away but his dog makes a break for it and starts running towards us again and this time he catches the dog and punches it. Stupidly, I yell that it's not okay for me to kick his dog but he can punch and he responds by calling me a very choice word.
Point of the story? Some people should not own dogs regardless of breed because they're, the humans, are volatile, with no common sense, always looking for trouble and ready for a fight and it doesn't matter if you're right because they are imbeciles.  |
