[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A LEASHED dog recently growled and lunged at me walking on the sidewalk. The owner ignored me like I was invisible while they TALKED to the dog. Just because it is on a leash doesn’t mean the owner is in control of the animal. [/quote]

Recently I was walking in old town Alexandria and an unleashed dog stopped in front of my daughter and I and started barking loudly at my daughter. The dog and my kid were about the same height, and I have no idea why the dog was barking at her -- she had not touched or interacted with him in anyway. I grabbed my daughter up into my arms and then turned to the dog's owner who I thought for sure would be apologetic.

Nope. She was talking to the dog, soothing him, and then snapped at me. I pointed out that maybe her dog should be leashed and maybe she shouldn't be taking him to busy pedestrian areas if he is so reactive, and she just shouted at me so I walked away with her just shouting abuse at me and my 4 year old.

You should need to past a test of basic human decency and intelligence to adopt a dog.[/quote]
