I have had troubles with my foot and knee lately so I am not moving very fast, if at all, sometimes. I was taking Buckeye out and wasn't watching as I walked out the door. I usually look to see if anyone else is walking their dogs because Buckeye don't know how to keep his mouth shut to the dogs walking on his precious street. I get to the end of our front walk and look up to see a girl on a bike with a pit bull beside her (buckeye sees it at the same time). buckeye starts barking............the pit lunges for him. separated only by the width of the street. the girl is pulled down with her bike and lets go of the leash. oh wow...........comming for us is this big pit bull. I tried to grab buckeye up as quickly as I can ,which was painful with my ailments anyway. I get him and hold him clost to my chest and hobbling as fast as I can to my door. I am hollering at bob not to open the door for fear that my other 3 would rush out there. but hugging the door I holler at the lady to get her dog! she is limping too and finally gets her dog. THAT ENDED MY WALK
