I feel bad for the dog too, the owner is defiantly not the type of person who should have a high-needs dog like a pit bull. He works and goes out a lot, his house is tiny, front and back yards are tiny, he never walks the dog, and I rarely see him interact with it when they're out front. I think the dog is mostly a masculine status symbol to him.


I'm sorry you have to leave in fear too, we should be able to enjoy our dogs without having to be paranoid all the time.
I thought all places had laws where dogs had to be on a leash or in a fenced in area too.
I'll look into the wasp spray, thanks for the suggestion.


I'll look into the can of muzzle and bear spray too, thanks. It's hard to pick a spray product, there are quite a few and I have no idea which works best.
I choose the wasp spray because it sprays up to 25 feet, if I see a dog approaching, I don't have to wait till the dog is 3 feet from me, I can stop it at 15 to 25 feet and give me the time I need to pick my dog up. I always put myself between the approaching dog and mine. I think my new lil boy is dog aggressive, I don't need a big dog thinking he's being challenged if Cody gets aggressive. So wasp spray it is for me.
