I know what you mean people just run up to peoples dogs and think thats ok especially kids. I have a pomeranian and there used to be a park out by my house and i used to take him and kids where always wanting to chase him arround and pet him and he doesnt like to be chased etc and its not fair to him when he has to be a a leash and cant get away. I dont mind adults petting my dogs but i definately would not let them pick any of my dogs up without my permission first thats just not something id feel comfortable with id be afraid they would run off them them or something. I just think people should have more common sense then that then to pet someone elses dog no matter how small or nice they appear you jsut never know and you dont want to get bit even by a yorkie. so why not atleast ask if you can pet the dog first. and parents should teach their kids that as well. |
