Good for you. I Love dogs to death, but I too have an uncertain feeling when dealing with strange dogs.<br /><br />Probably comes from when I got my first "real" job working for a vet. I had made a vow that I would never let him get bitten while I was responsible for containing the animal while he was treating them. But , then one evening I was washing all the runs down and giving fresh water. I had just been "tackled" by a Saint Bernard puppy.<br />It was funny because I had my hair in a long braid to keep it out of my way and I had bent over to give her a fresh drink-but she saw that long braid as a new toy. She leaped forward with those big snow-shoe feet , grabbed my brain and pulled. LOL - It toppled me over -head over heels into the now wet run and she was still in the shake your head and drag the vet's assistant back to the dog house! I was temporarily stunned and when I finally snapped out if -we were in a pulling contest to see who was going to win. LOL It was SO funny, finally I escaped with just my pride being bruised. As I locked the run behind me and heaved a big sign of relief -I heard a deep angry growl and just as I turned to look a doberman stalked me back to the main house growling with every step I took backwards. I knew this dobie because it had a terrible reputation as being trained as an attack animal. I was almost to the door of the hospital and I heard a noise. As I turned my head Back the Doberman leaped straight at my throat. God, must have been looking out for me that time because as it leaped -my boss , Dr. Harris had magically appeared blocking the attack with his arm-throwing the dobie off balance and in that moment he pushed him into the run that he had escaped from.<br /><br />Yes, I still love them all - and yes - I tread softly with strange ones. Kindly like the way you would treat a strange human being sometimes? :)<br /><br />I am glad you got to take your walk with the pups - don't they make walks so much more fun.:)webbswayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11500925658471825693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-45800443666031693472010-09-02T12:58:12.331+12:002010-09-02T12:58:12.331+12:00Seeing a big dog just roaming around, always makes...Seeing a big dog just roaming around, always makes me nervous. I like dogs, but only when I know their temperament. It must be even more worrying if you have other dogs with you.<br /><br />Great idea to phone ahead though :)Markhttp://fatophobia.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-45857557651184591572010-09-02T09:56:31.938+12:002010-09-02T09:56:31.938+12:00The vision of you running with one small dog under...The vision of you running with one small dog under each arm whils terrified is not good take a stick and make really loud noises.You know my view on unrestrained dogs.blondie1https://www.blogger.com/profile/17508560060006389413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-68334207459087236002010-09-02T09:56:28.473+12:002010-09-02T09:56:28.473+12:00Hope the weather held out for you and the walk, co...Hope the weather held out for you and the walk, cold and miserable here....Jaxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17358785668131154655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-34672050082319120922010-09-02T08:48:17.070+12:002010-09-02T08:48:17.070+12:00Enjoy your walk Chris :)Enjoy your walk Chris :)Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02670323685547211097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-29036674710757566732010-09-02T08:00:36.404+12:002010-09-02T08:00:36.404+12:00You need to take some kind of spray with you on yo...You need to take some kind of spray with you on your walks and spray the hell out of any big ugly dog that gets close!!
