Years ago, I got a letter like that because of my little poodle. I couldn't believe it. He was the sweetest little thing and had never really barked at anyone.
I worked, but in the summertime by girls let him out and sometimes he was out when the postman came by. Well, I was home one day and when the postman came, you should have seen the dog go berserk. I couldn't understand why until someone told me that the reason they get obsessed with the mailman is he comes in your yard, the dog barks, the postman leaves and the dog thinks he has run him off.
Anyway, they wouldn't deliver my mail until I promised my "visious" little poodle would not ever be outside when the weenie postman came.
I was home one day (we live in the country now) when our meter reader came by in a pickup. I looked out and she has her truck door open but wasn't getting out of the truck. Our Great Pyranee who was huge but was a teddy bear was standing by the truck door. I went running out and said "He isn't bothering you is he"? She said "Oh no, He's a sweetheart. I'm just giving him the treat I bring him every month." Smart Lady. |
