I can understand feeling threatened to the point of keeping your dogs away from JH. However, his experience justifies his anger and possible fear. I wouldn't want my dog killed (I don't own one now, but my parents and I have owned more at one time than most people in their lives - and trust me Sandy, I know about loving a dog), but I also understand that people have a legitimate fear/hatred of them. I'm sure JH is not the only one who would defend himself to the point of the dog's death should he be attacked. As I said, if JH is provoking the dog, then he deserves what he gets. JH and dog owners both are responsible for their own actions.

Oh my gosh, forget beating the god damn dogs. WE are beating this thread into the ground. Give it up. CONTROL YOUR DOGS.

Have a nice day

JH wasn't bitten. He couldn't file any charges against the animal because no injury was caused.

P.S. If some of you get bit by dogs often, it is a proven fact that dogs dislike you because you smell like a dog. Take a shower.

Artsay, listen. please. Not snaps at or growls or shits or slobbers or winks,looks away, yawns,farts.........or nips at.

When I am bitten and it draws blood.

whether its on a leash or not makes no difference. I don't bushwack through the woods to get in the way of dogs to see if I can get bitten.
I am talking about me being ambushed while walking established trails that people have some inane need to tie their dog to. Or of walking through the shelter at Miguels and having a pit bull come out from under the table and bite/attack me from behind, as I'm walking away, not even aware that it was there.There was no one else in sight. No warning, nothing,

Ok..here we are again, playing into JH's attempt to get attention..sad but I think it worked...your welcome JH.

[quote="Artsay"]Question JH: Did you get bitten (broke the skin) or snapped at both times?[/quote

If a dog "snaps" it is a dog that bites but has accuracy issues. It use to crack me up when I worked at a Vet. hospital, I would ask a dog owner if their dog bites and they would say "no he/she just snaps".

nice

J.H., You would have aquired it whole new passion for dogs if you would have seen the kick ass dog fights I did this weekend. Vic's Alaskan Malamut (sp?) is like 150lbs horse bought ate my friend Bryan's 70lbs puppy Malamut (sp?). Not only that, but at Miguel's someone's big black dog bought ate a little rodent someone claimed was a dog. This whole weekend was like the "Toughman Contest" for dogs.

J.H., did it belong to a bunch of Canadians?
