I used to live in a beautiful neighborhood of free standing condo's filled with wonderful owners and little dogs. Until one day a new family moved in with a rottweiler who was a monster! This dog on two occaisons almost injured my girls. When I spoke with the owner he laughed and said sorry. I called the cops both times and he was fined by the condo association for violating the leash clause. One day I was walking my girls and my neighbors 2 yorkies and out of nowhere came this vicious monster! I grabbed hold of 3 pups and stuffed them in my sweat shirt, as I was reaching for the 4th pup and the rotty nocked me to me knees and I was able to huddle over all the pups. I managed to mace the dog and he ran away. The pups were safe but I had to get 7 stitches. I don't know what would have happend if I was not carrying mace. |
How terrifying! I was walking with my little one and a big Lab--a female who is aggressive and has been known to have nipped other people...and bitten some dogs came charging towards us. She was being walked by a teenage daughter who was unable to control her lab. I yanked him up and held him by my head and the dog pounced on me. She kept jumping up and was trying to get to him. I was in such shock that I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to kick the dog obvisously but I knew she was going to bite my face before I let her get to Chase. At that moment the dad pulled up and yelled at the dog to come and said how sorry he was. Are you kidding me? Sorry?!! and I know that she has and will probably do this again. I expect the behavior from some breeds but never would have thought a lab would be like this. I guess that was ignorant of me bc any dog can potentially become aggressive but really what is in our legal right to do. 2 girls, the mace that you used...is it made for dogs? I have pepper spray that I would use on a person so is that the same kind to use on an attacking dog? Or do they make a special type so as not to damage that dog's vision etc.?
