That dog was a terrible. If I’m walking down the street the dog acted as if it wanted to kill me or anyone walking down the street. Normally I wouldn’t give it any attention because he was behind the fence. One day I was walking. I was young then. The dog runs up and is barking. He got to the front gate. It was open. He came out the yard still barking. He began running towards me. I knew I couldn’t outrun it. So I ran towards him. I assumed I was going to get bitten. But the dog saw me running towards him and turned and ran back in the yard.
I have no idea why dogs loved my shampoo…lol Mostly stray dogs. Only once it was the neighbor dog. I only seen that dog out of his yard twice. The home is on the same side of the street as me. There’s an empty lot across from me. He came from that lot. I had time to ge everyone to safety. But my wife prevented me from getting the dogs in safe because she was afraid. My son was young. She was holding him and keeping that gate closed…..lol
Wow, that is a good story. I wonder why your dog was approached when it was bathed but not when not bathed. That is weird. Maybe you were using delicious shampoo or the neighbor's dog prefer to run up on a clean dog. :)
I think contracts are useful. But I'm not entirely sure they are enforceable. They can be used to qualify and screen potential puppy owners.
I remember when I had 2 Samoyed. I would bathe them. Then take them for a walk. Every time I take them for a walk after a bath a strange dog would run up on us. My male would grab it no matter how big. He never back down. I would out him. The strange dog would run off. Then I would have to bath him again. I would be so mad. I just gave them a bath. The female would get involved. If I walked her alone she would avoid trouble. Once I had just closed my gate. Then a dog ran across the vacant lot. It was a neighbor's dog. He was loose. I always avoided his house because of his dog would bark like crazy. But wasn't able to attack because it was behind the fence. I tried to get me dogs back in my yard. I got my wife inside. Next I was try to get myself. Keeping my eye on the dog. I reached for fence. I pulled but could open it. I tried several times. Then I looked. My wife was pulling it closed. I had to tell her to let go. I got in. I pulled my dogs to get in. But I was too late. The dog was on range. My dog grabbed it. I said out. He released him. The dog ran home sideways. It ran into his yard. Of course I had to bath him again. 🙄 I walked the dog other days without a bath and no incidents....smh
