You were VERY lucky that nothing happened
I hate it when this happens! Over here people let there dogs into the street ALONE,I guess they think its just easier to open their front door and let the dog out than to put it on a leash and actually walk it (how inconvinient!!)
Iv been walking mine and suddenly Im surrounded by dogs who are out alone and of course its very scary,especially when theyre so much bigger than our babies.
I just wish some people (especially those with big dogs) would put their dogs on retractable leashes instead of just letting them loose,they should realise that those who have smaller dogs and are actually on a leash,could be in danger!
I had an argument with a women once because I was walking Jess and a HUGE mastin came running towwards us,I just froze,I dont think Id ever seen such a big dog! Of course I grabbed Jess but that was no use at all,this mastin was as tall as me!,then the owner screamed out from her front door across the street,she was telling me that her dog wouldent hurt mine.I was SO angry! I asked her what this dog was doing ALONE in the street and she said that he was going for his morning walk! Its just amazing that those of us that do the right thing and keep our dogs on a leash have to be harassed by those that are just charging around ruining our walks and pooping in other peoples yards! Its actually the owners that need a slap!
