The most terrifying thing ever I took Scooter and Bitsy for a walk today. We were about a block from the house when I looked up and saw a Husky coming right at us. I picked up Scooter and by then the dog was on Bitsy. She's a Lhasa Apso and weighs about 20 pounds. She pulled so hard that she came out of her collar and she and the Husky took off with the Husky right on her tail. The owner was on a bike and she said "no" a few times but that was it. I was screaming no, no and running after them. Scooter was in my arms screaming. At the end of our block is a very busy boulevard where the cars go at least 50 and they were headed for it. Amazingly Bitsy ran right for our house and up on the porch. The lady across the street saw it and ran over and grabbed Bitsy till I got there. The stupid owner just kinda came up on her bike at slow speed and took her dog and said "sorry". I am still shaking over this stupid woman. How dare she let that big dog off leash? It could have been so, so much worse I don't even want to think about it.
