A rant: crappy dog owners

Gotta stay away from this thread......makes me wanna pick heat.

 

I think the Lakers are still the favorites IMHO.

 

Only twice have I seen city dog people let their dogs out in the country, both were near large herds of goats and/or sheep. I drove by on the county road next to my place and said "yall need to get those dogs back in the car" "Oh they're just running around for a bit..." Then they start chasing the goats...now I really say "You need to get your dogs back here NOW" " They're just playing! It's ok"

"NO, get your ******* dogs back here NOW"

Here comes the herd guard animal, this time it was 2 llamas (I'm glad it wasn't the 2 great pyrenees dogs or the 2 donkeys, they get swapped out from herd to herd from time to time)...running full speed and snorting and all pissed off..and over the course of 5 minutes they proceeded to chase and corner and trample-murder those 2 dogs within sight of the owners, who screamed the entire time.

Good times. Keep your dipshit dogs on a leash, and don't bring them out to the country to "let them run around".

 

A herd of cows will do it too unless they're used to working dogs.

Cows hate dogs.

 

It's really quite simple.

DO NOT ALLOW YOUR DOG TO INFRINGE ON OTHERS
Always use a leash when walking your dog. Keep your dog under your control at all times.
Do not facilitate any situation where it's possible for your dog to leave your property without being on a leash.
Always pick up your dog's poop if it isn't on your own property.
Never assume that your sweet dog cannot bring harm to other people or other animals
Do not allow your dog to bark incessantly. Do not allow your dog to bark at night. This is very inconsiderate of others.
Take every action possible to prevent your dog from harning guests at your house.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR DOG
Keep your dog up-to-date on shots
Chip your dog
Have your dog spayed or neutered
Keep an identifying collar on your dog at all times with dog name & your contact info on it
Do not facilitate any situation where it's possible for your dog to leave your property without being on a leash.
If you are ever conncerned that another animal might harm your dog, carry pepper spray.

IF YOU ARE INCAPABLE OR UNWILLING TO FOLLOW EVERY RULE LISTED ABOVE, YOU SHOULD NOT OWN A DOG AND YOU ARE AN IRRESPONSIBLE PET OWNER.

 

TL; DR

 

Haven't watched the rest, but the first 23 secs is all I needed to give you a like on this.

OH JOBE WHAT YOU DOIN?

Now it's all the likes. That's exactly what I remember from growing up on the coast.

 

Theres a Grand Finale.

 

I was driving my al meds the other day and Waze took me through one of the neighborhoods. Two dogs (likely owned by someone) ran out on the street and almost got hit by a car. If you don’t have a fenced backyard I can’t imagine opening the door and letting my pups out like that. I have to say Houston is a city full of shitty dog owners

 

Now I know. It's brilliant.

 

Isn't Dog Won't Listen the Texas A & M themesong?

Ask @Ziggy

 

It's definitely irritating when walking my dog and others have their dog off their leash and then they come interact with my dog. What if my dog and myself don't want to interact with your dog? I love dogs, but **** people just put them on a leash. If you want them off a leash, then stop buying tiny townhomes with no yards and get the **** out of the 610 loop and go to the suburbs (or go buy a house with a yard in the hood).

I've trained my dog to be super chill so he doesn't react to dogs, doesn't bark at them and he is super friendly, but I do get tired of dog owners who think they are mightier than thou and don't take their dog to the dog park to be lose.
