I live a few moments from here, just out walking my dogs, trying to walk my dogs! My dog Poppy the Pitbull and Baby didn’t want to walk while I was walking across the street from the park. I was at the stop sign, while loads of people are driving by, trying to pull them along. I am on someone’s yard, full of rocks and stickers, and they are both pulling me the other way. Why?? I have no idea, they want me to fall on the ground in front of all of these people at the park and driving by us, in that person’s yard that has no sidewalk. I am always worried they will come out and yell at me. I just don’t want to cross the street and walk them at the park. I was walking them the other day, and a guy decides to open his door and let his big brown dog run out. This dog ran at us and I really was afraid of what was going to happen. This dog was running through the neighborhood one day and ran at me and my other dog Baby. I learned to never break eye contact while yelling at a dog like that, while running away. And then here he is again! Running at us on the street in front of the park! I started yelling at him and the man to get his dog on a leash. He laughed at me to my face and said everything was fine. He would not come and get his dog. I kept yelling at him because I felt it was an emergency! I didn’t know what his dog would do unleashed, while both of my dogs are leashed with gentle leaders. He just kept laughing at me, told me to take my dogs home, etc…mean. Wanted to make me feel small I guess and wanted his dog to attack me and my dogs. I left gradually but his dog decided to go back to the house, he never came and got his dog. I try to avoid that house now. Many people in the town like to walk their dogs unleashed! My dogs need the exercise so I chance it.
