No amount of training of my little dog is going to make it safe to run into a loose, angry, untrained 200-pound mastiff.
You are so right ! We all have seen the horror of dog attacks.

This is a 'fun thread', everything doesn't have to be serious. I was poking fun at myself, when I told the story about Ginny Joy.( Most of you know I work very hard at keeping my doggies safe.) I never suggested it was OK for Ginny Joy to act crazy. But one of the most endearing things about Yorkies, is their Terrier heart. I think most of us were treating this like a fun thread. All done preaching.
