| Bad Pet Owners!!!! This is going to be a vent!!! I just returned home from a small park near my house wher my son plays. In walks a girl with 2 huge huskies. She lets them off leash and they proceed over to me and jump up at Chewy. I have him over my head holding him up by his harness. This girl doesn't do anything! No down or pulling them away, nothing. I tell her to get her dogs away from me, at this point they were jumping up on ME. She just said Oh they're friendly. Finally I had to yell at her to get her $#%%^&&* dogs off me or I'll call the police. She pulled them away and proeeded to let her dogs run off leash through a children's park! I walked up to her and threatened to call the police if she didn't leave. She said I was crazy and then left with her dogs. Why do people like this own pets, couldn't she have gone to a dog run??AAAAGGHHHHH |

| I would have thrown a fit too. There is no reason why she should be there with her pets. You had more then enough right to get ticked. |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | How discourteous can a person be? I'm sure that in her eyes they were friendly but to allow them to jump on people like that? People other than those that are her family members do not know these dogs! Isn't there a leash law or something?

| you have a right to be mad, there are just some dogs that should not be off leash because they havent been taught any manners......... im actually guilty of letting my dog (my old golden) off leash practically everywhere, but the difference is that she was well mannered, she stayed by me, she wagged her tail at EVERYONE, and she NEVER barked (except that one time a guy was high on drugs and approached me........ she scared him off, but that was the only time....) yeah we have leash laws, but she was so well mannered that even the police would come up and pet her and ask me questions about her, i think maybe they thought she was a service dog on training or something (she was THAT good) |

| Many people are very inconsiderate of others. My dogs have been attacked twice in the park while they were both on a leash! It is very frustrating, and there is no easy answer... |

That makes me sick. What is wrong with people? You should'nt have had to tell her twice. She should have dealt with her dogs. I dont even let my 7 lb chihuahua jump up on people she doesnt know. Thats crazy!

| It really was the strangest thing. She was in her mid 20's and I still can't believe it. To let your dogs just jump all over someone and do nothing and then just stand there saying "they're really nice" i don't care if your dogs are nice, the point is, control your dogs and keep them on a leash. Poor Chewy was whining as I was holding with my arm outstretched, he was freaked out! |

| She and her dogs need some training! Sounds to me like she and her dogs need to learn some etiquette! At the dog show this weekend I had a hold of my dogs so tightly, especially my poodle and I wouldn't even let him sniff! I think it is important to assume people don't want your dog near them unless they ask to approach or pet or ask if the dogs can meet and play. Maybe Responsible Pet Ownership 101 should be required to get a dog! It would make our lives a lot easier. |
