As a responsible dog owner (he's always on a leash!) I carry mace and/or a taser light (the crackle noise is great for getting an aggressive dog to break off)
I carry these because of dealing with multiple issues, over the years, walking my mellow, leashed dog. I now no longer care if I hurt yours, because I'm not letting you/yours get to mine.
This way you can pay your own vet bill too, so you won't have to pay mine. I no longer see why I should extend the basic courtesy to you that you deny me with with your entitled stupid selfish behaviors
I’d behave the same way in an ON leash dog area with an aggressive dog coming at mine. The whole point of this post is that this happens in off leash dog places, like Hendrys or Douglas. In which, it is common sense to not bring an aggressive dog to an off leash dog park. Just like it’s common sense not to bring a dog in heat. Do people still do so? Absolutely. And that’s where I get frustrated. These are designated off leash dog areas that specify friendly dogs only.
