I am just really angry right now. But I will admit some fault at least, lol.
I live in a quiet neighborhood. about a billion people like to use our little street as a cut through when walking or driving. We constantly have walkers with dogs going by our house. Well our 2 yo doggie has a big bark and our fenced yard includes the front of the house. Now Gracie is not an aggressive doggie. She is rather sweet natured but she is very protective of her kids and home. Most of her barking at the dogs and people is wanting to play but despite telling them that people get scared of her. But if another dog comes near her kids that she has not been introduced properly too, she will play alpha dog and get rather loud and snapish. She has never hurt another dog, but I always step in. If she is introduced properly then she is fine with the other dog and even cats.
Now my kids are knuckleheads, and have on occasion left the garage door open and Miss Grace likes to escape. We have been teaching her to stay and also socializing her with other dogs to get along better. She is coming along.
Today, I was out washing the car and knucklehead Dave left the garage door open. Well, a lady comes walking up the street with her 2 dogs. The next door neighbor dog starts to bark and before I can react there are my 2 dogs at the end of the driveway barking. They stop and snif the dog and the other lady let go of her dog because he is not good with dogs and she is afraid he will bite. My dogs just continue to snif and look curiously at this new dog.
I call them and baloo comes but gracie is waiting abit. The dog snaps at her and comes toward me and dave so Gracie snaps back. I call her and she comes. Didn't leave a mark on the other dog.
Well the woman is witching all the way up the street. How this has happened before (Like when? I always catch her when she gets out) How this is her neighborhood and she should be able to walk her dog without him getting bit. (1. he didn't get bit, and 2. he started it) and how she is reporting it this time.
GO FOR IT!!!!
I am just waiting for them to show up or the door bell to ring.
