I gotta rant. I walk my two guys together, on leash and we often go with my friend and her 80 pound greyhound. Today we're peacefully walking by the neighborhood park, when an a==h=l= on a bike has his dog on its leash, on the sidewalk. We walked our three LARGE dogs up the side of a small hill to avoid him and the (obviously not well trained) dog, but he lets the dog come up the hill towards us (expando-leash) and my boys think its playtime. They're trying to go say hello to the dog, when my feet start sliding out from under me, down the hill and I sit hard on my butt.
So now the guy's sitting there on his bike, still letting the dog sniff at my guys, while I'm lying on my back cursing. "are you all right?" I said "Get out of here!" (after a few choice words they bleep on network TV). Finally he rides away and I can get up and collect myself.
If it hadn'ta been a busy street I would have let my dogs go and he could have found out how fun it would be to have his dog drag him and his bike out into the street. BUT I didn't want to let my dogs get hurt.
Hope I can walk tomorrow. Thanks for letting me rant.
