I was attacked by 2 Dogs today!

Yep, there I was walking through the arboretum, when these two Dogs came charging at me barking and snapping. One of them grabbed my jeans and was ragging them!

the other just stood jumping towards me and barking. Now what were these Dogs? POMERANIANS! The owners were screaming "Eliza, Tulip"

the dogs ignored them. I was in two minds what to do. Flick it into the stream

or stamp on it!

Honestly I wouldnt of done either, but what totally infuriated me was the owners "they dont mean any harm" attitude and the fact that because they are small dogs it didnt matter!

As you all know, I am a very quiet person who keeps her opinions to herself

but on this occasion I let rip! How dare they suggest just because they were small it didnt matter. I explained a child without trousers WOULD of been bitten and they could be in real trouble, I hope they understood.

My Dog, Breeze, carried on, left me to be attacked and went looking for Squirrels!

talk about loyalty!

Glad you are ok Dawn, good for you for telling them!! But I too am laughing at your post...

Sorry BD, but the way you told that, I almost lost control of my bladder

I do find it incredible though that some people with such small dogs have no concept of how much damage their dogs could do. Good lord, a cat bite is painfull enough.
Some how though, I find it very hard to imagine that you, such a placid person as you are, lost your rag

I think Breeze knows that you are more than capable of looking after yourself with out his help.

Poor you - glad you gave that owner what for - quite right about a child without trousers (even with for that matter) child would have been terrified.

You'd be within your rights to report her to the police - did you?

Yes your post did make me smile too!!!

borderdawn · 19-03-2008, 11:33 PM

No I didnt report them , but Im more annoyed every time i think about it. I did tell them what trouble they could face if it were a child or somebody that took offence. I mean they probably only weighed about 8lbs each, and working with Dogs, it really didnt bother me at all, but thats not the point, and as for Breeze, im not taking her again, my "boys" would of saved me!

Moli · 19-03-2008, 11:35 PM

I am sure Breeze was really pleased you save her from those horrors!!!

Really am glad your ok Dawn but that did make me laugh

Now that is scary

Any dog snapping and bearing it's teeth is enough to terrify me - even one that's jumping around and being friendly makes me shrink back. Obviously you own dogs and work with dogs, but for those of us who are removed from them, it's more of a concern.

I do like your narrative though
