General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Sorry to resurrect this thread, but this afternoon I had an encounter with one of those brutes.
I was sitting on my bench at the front of my house enjoying the sunshine, when suddenly one of those dogs came charging down my path. It was off-leash and ran past my legs. I know little about dog breeds but, after reading this thread last month I looked them up, and it was an XL.
I was terrified, as I am afraid of all dogs, but I realised it had seen my little cat and was chasing her. Luckily, my cat could have given Shergar a run for its money and she escaped, but I was still shaking like a leaf up to an hour later.
All I got from the owner was "sorry love", "sorry love". Had I been able to speak I would have given him a mouthful, but I was frozen to the spot.
We all know it's illegal to have a dog off-leash in a public place and I swear, if I ever see that creature again, I will report it to the authorities. I don't who the guy is, nor where he lives, but I'll make it my business to find out.
ALL dogs are potentially dangerous, even little Chihuahuas.
