<<Guy has no business owning a dog like that obviously.>>

Back when I had a motorcycle a guy sicced 2 dobes on me. Ran over one and the other went back to heel. I stopped up the road and asked if he wanted me to call someone for help. He just called me a dirty name.

It sounds like the dog is completely unsocialized. The least the guy could do is keep it on a shorter lead and muzzle it. But no.........he's on a "look at my mean breeded dog.....isn't he intimidating" power trip. Did the guy look like he was in his early 20s? That has got to be the most dangerous and most clueless age for humans. It's really a good thing you were there. That poor Dane would probably have been killed if you hadn't been.

I DO remember you saying no more pets. But Oral.........I made the mistake of not getting another dog after my Fred (1/2 Great Dane 1/2 Rhodesian Ridgeback) died. I waited 22 yrs then I got Neeka. Having an animal around is just so nice. I now know that replacing a beloved pet is a very good thing, so I'm glad you got another kitty.

Besides, the kitty (what's its name) probably keeps your wife company, and pets are especially comforting after surgery or during illness.

What is the matter with people and their pets?

It amazes me that someone who owns an aggressive dog like that would be out in public with it and not have it under control.

We have been taking Stella to the new dog park for exercise, and she runs all her energy out playing with the dogs. Wide variety of dogs there, including some pit bulls and huskies, and I have been very impressed with how well socialized these dogs are.

All of this just to get some cat food. Remember us putting down our cat and saying never again would we own an animal? We lied:)

Never say never. Where'd you get the cat?
