Since she's blind she obviously couldn't see what her dog was doing but that does not justify her husband not saying anything. Sorry for the long comment, this topic sets me off b/c i've went through it too. =] |
Since she's blind I have a suggestion - can you talk to her and ask what TIMES she's letting out her dog - then you can work around it and take yours out at other times ?
do you have leash laws ? you could suggest a really long long leash for her to use on her service dog - that way she has control & can stay in her home and he can sitll explore....
I've had similar problems in my apartment especially after work - others are out at the same time so I started waiting a bit before I walk my girls & if I see a big dog - I go the other way - if I see more than one dog - I stay in my own courtyard and just go realllllly slow
it sucks that people don't bother to say I'm sorry if their dog goes after another - it's simple MANNERS ! But I hesitate to say that about a blind person in case she can't see what's happening....
