Shao New gets attacked by a Yorkie *rant*
OK, just had to vent about these Yorkie owners...now don't get me wrong, I LOVE terriers, I grew up with a carin terrier / chiuahua mix and she was smart and super manipulative...anyway back to present day Yorkie owners...
My neighbor leaves her dog out as punishment or something-- she does this quite often and a few times in the heat and Matthew wanted to go rescue this Yorkie and bring it inside to our Apt just so it doesn't pass out...well, no more...it was out today, and Shao New needed to go out (probably smelled the other dog), so I brought her out, friggin psycho terrier was out, lunged at Shao New, and was at biting at her neck. So Pup seriously had no clue what was happening and just stared down toward her neck like "huh? I don't get it.."
Meanwhile I'm trying to pull both of them apart with both arms pulling, and of course this frigging Yorkie is on a retractable leash so it was useless. I was just about to pick up the Yorkie when my neighbor comes out and says, oh! sorry. Now if you know your dog is dog aggressive and your neighbors have a puppy that goes out often why would you put it out there?
That and most yorkie owners around me freak when they see the "husky" and pick their dog up and go the other way..
anyway, that's my rant, as I type this we just allowed her to go up on the sofa and now she's doing zoomies on the sofa, she's pretty agile!

I hope you feel better Irene. :(
There used to be 2 dachshunds where we live and they were always off-leash with their owner on the cell phone (what else...). One of them always charged at Mochi so I was used to having my foot ready to kick that dog if I really had to defend myself. All I heard from the owner was: "oh im so sorry..." yeah. whatever. they moved away :D
