First let me say that my neighbor (across sreet, 1/2 foot ball field from me) has 2 boxer bulldogs that he allows to run free. Since we live in the county, there is no ruling on this.
Yesterday, I was walking Puddles in MY front yard. These 2 boxers saw us and started running across their yard, across the road to my house barking. I knew we were in trouble. Puddles started running for me and I towards him. Before I knew it Puddles was in my arms, licking my face.
His little heart was flying. I then ran hard for my front door, with the 2 dogs in tow. In my mine, I could see my little baby being tossed in the air and his soft fur being every where. I was never once worried about me, only him!!
Once in the house, my husband asked what was wrong. After explaining all this to him, I looked and could not find Puddles. Bless his heart, he was in his crate. I called the Sheriff's office regarding this and was informed their was nothing that could be done. Only if they had attacked me, well what about my puppy I thought and said well thank you for your time!
I decided to take this in my own hands and called the owner, which is a grandson of my neighbor. I told him what had just happend and all he could say was OH and only OH, no sorry, nothing. I then told him that hubby said "let this happen again and they will be dead boxers" and hung up the phone. He called his dogs home and they sat on their front pouch watching my house.
I have never been this mad at any one before. Guess I want to protect Puddles as if he is my child, since I don't have any children. I don't want any problems with the neighbors, since we all have lived here for 27 years.
Now, I am afraid to take Puddles to potty and I am sure he will be sacred also. And I am also scared to tell hubby if they do it again, he will shoot them. :wacko:
Just wanted to shair this with you, please watch out for your little furballs. No way would they have a chance against big dogs.
