today just wasn't our day After having an annoying encounter with Phoebe at Petco, I took my Stanley to the park. He's fearful of people, so I take him for socialization 4-5 times a week. I make sure no one touches him, and he's really making progress. People always comment on how cute he is, but usually keep their distance when I tell them he's fearful.
As we were walking, an older man approached us. I guess he thought he was being funny, but he kept pretending he was going to kick or step on Stanley! I asked him to stop, but he kept on doing it. I really wanted to punch him (or kick him)!!! I had to scoop up Stanley & walk away before he ruined all the progress we've made so far. I just don't know what's wrong with people! |
