It's like beating a dead horse
But I have to say it. Put your dogs on a f-ing leash.
On my run this evening, we were running on the left side of the road with an oncoming walker/dog on the right side. Moe was running so well, and when I see another person, I try and put myself between person and Moe so he doesn't get too distracted from running. Alas, walker had his dog on a extendo and the dog ran across the road. Before the owner caught on, the dog pulled the leash out of his hand (which then un-extended itself) and I'm left running with a dog chasing me whose leash is 18 inches long. (Yes, I stopped to hold the dog while the owner came to get him).
Grrrrr....and my run was going so well!
Re: It's like beating a dead horse
gah! I was just going to make a similar post. On my way home from work last night, I saw two dogs walking along side the road (Brookdale Dr- not a slow side street.) I watched them as I drove past, because a few people were outside in their lawns, but they walked past them all. So I turned around and found the dogs walking into a park. I pulled over, and thankfully- one of the neighbors over there had a leash and some treats.
We got the dogs to come over to us, called the owners and no answer. I called a few more times, then called the cops. 20 minutes later, as we were waiting, the owner (?) popped out of a fence way on the other side of the park and whistled at the dogs, who went running back. No thanks, nothing. And she had my phone number, because I called her. I was pissed. And you could tell the dogs were super tired and hot and thirsty... they also smelled horrible. I was so sad
But at least they had tags?
