| Remy’s horrible terrible no good bad day Remy’s horrible terrible no good bad day My dh and I walk our three furkids twice a day. Yesterday we were taking them on their afternoon/evening walk. They were on leashes on the sidewalk past one of our neighbors, the family was outside and their standard poodle came out to greet us, she had just been groomed and looked so cute. Remy got all excited and tried to lick her face!! The owner came over to talk, A little latter Remy rolled over onto her back (you know what I mean if you have a Yorkie lol) .. The poodle was playing with her then…. omg…. the Poodle attacked Remy!!!!! There was not a warning that I saw, even my dh (who is really a dog whisper in disguised) did not see anything. The owner pulled the poodle off and I grabbed Remy. She (Remy) was screaming and crying.. I think I was too. The poodle hurt the owners hand, didn’t break the skin but her hand was bruised. She was more concerned about that then Remy. I did not find broken skin or blood, but I think Remy peepee herself. My dh said it looked to him like the poodle got more hair then anything - we calmed down and went home.. Poor Remy was shaking and whimpering and I held her. She was limping a little, so we think the Poodle may have bruised her foot. I called the vet, gave Remy a nice warm bath and she seamed her old self. It sure could have been a lot worst!! I have seen that dog thousand of times, never seen any aggression in the dog!! Lesson learned.. don't trust any dog!!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I am so glad Remy is ok, it could have been a real tragedy. I don't care what an owner says, I will not let my babies by a bigger dog.

| Poor Remy. I am so glad she is okay as that could have been a tragedy. You know we forget they are dogs and just for the moment when we think all is okay, they start acting like dogs! My sister's standard poodle was like that - capricious and occasionally untrustworthy. I am just so glad your girl is fine. This kind of sharing is a cautious tale to each of us to watch dogs like hawks when they are together. Give little Remy a big hug from Tibbe and his mom and all the treats she can worm out of you! |

| I'm so sorry Remy got beat up. I am glad she is feeling better though! I too never allow my dogs near larger dogs - if I see larger dogs when out walking, I pick up my dog and make a dash across the street. Who needs to deal with some oversized oaf near my precious cuties!!

| I am glad Remy is okay. I know you must of been terrified too. Over the years I have heard many horror stories of big 'sweet' dogs turning on a smaller dog that they had been raised around. I would not trust any big dog around a small dog or a child. You are very lucky Remy was not hurt badly.

| You never know! We have two larger dogs, 50 and 75 lbs and we always watch them together. We don't let them play chase, it gets our Viszla, a hunting dog, too excited. We don't let them play tug of war, Brandi has learned to just let Shadow have the toy and wait for her to tire of it. Even though they are raised together it only takes one wrong step for Shadow to get hurt. I'm glad Rdmy is OK, just too bad. |

| Oh my gosh, my heart started pounding hard as I was reading on. Thank God Remy was not seriously hurt. Poor little girl was so terrified, I'm sure. I have always worried if a dog will turn on the spur of the moment. Yes, lesson learned here too, you just never know. Hugs to you and give Remy lots of kisses from me & Zhoie.

| I am so glad Remy is alright! I always pick up Sophie around any dog we meet on a walk because you just never know for sure what they may be capable of doing even if they act friendly toward you.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I'm glad Remy wasn't seriously hurt. But I will admit, the title of your post made me smile a bit. Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day was one of my oldest daughter's favorite books when she was little.
