I assume you just want their owner to be a responsible dog owner and leash his dogs when they are outside. Please, don't fault the dogs for the owner's ignorance and lack of training.
If your animal control is run under your local police department call the pd and complain to the Chief / Sheriff that animal control isn't enforcing the leash law (if you have a leash law that is). If not the pd then try your city manager or your county administrator.
In the mean time, I would carry the dog mace too. |
I second that opinion.
I took my dog for a run last night and had a similar encounter. However it wasn't my Yorkies that were with me, it was my 110lb Rottweiler. I had a medium sized black dog run out of it's yard and charge my dog, this irritates me just as much as if I'd had one of the little ones with me. The owner looked at me like I had an alligator on the leash, and he is far
less aggressive than either of my Yorkies! Please tell me how I am in the wrong? I wasn't worried about an altercation, because I can control my dog, but God forbid one of the babies were with me. They would have come un-glued!
I try not to start wars with my neighbors, or at the very least I try not to let them know how angry I am with them. I simply report them to our HOA or call the city and file a complaint. The last thing I want is someone who can see my comings and goings and act out while I'm not at home.
