I almost ran over my neighbor's dog today.

This is one of the dogs that is always out loose, has ended up running in to my open garage at times, and pees in my bushes.

x(

The guy lives 3 doors down from me, always lets his dogs out with no leashes, and I am quite frankly surprised that he still has living dogs.

I am going to write him a note, because, I am sure, I would have had to pay to replace the damn dog, had I run it over (he has dachsunds, and I am sure they are pedigreed).

2. Don't feel bad. I'm sure with enough practice you'll get him eventually.

13. LOL. Have any of you seen the movie "Keeping Mum" with Maggie Smith as

the murdering mother?

If so, you might remember what happened to the little yapping Jack Russell (?) terrier that lived next door and bothered her daughter.

But I digress...

:( RIP Spark. :cry:

5. Glad you missed....

My little dog escaped out the back door tonight and fled to the woods, missing for 45 minutes before limping (frost foot) up the hill in the yard. There was no way I could go chase her down in the woods tonight, but thankfully she came home.

Your neighbor is very lucky his dogs are still running around. I never let mine out loose since we don't have a fenced area. They are always leashed, unless they escape (like tonight).
:hi:

6. That's odd... there's a couple that lives a couple of blocks away...

that always lets their daschunds run about sans leash. Maybe they think they're too small to get into trouble?

7. Damn dog, KayDub?

Hmph.

9. The dog was doing what dogs do... it is the damn "owner" of said dog that I have issues with.

8. Please tell me that wasn't my sister's dog...

:blush:

10. Nope, not your sister's dog!

She is around the corner and across the street from me.

11. Assholes like that should either take care of their animals

or lose them. x(

I'm glad you didn't hit the poor dog. :hug:

12. how frustrating it must be

I hate arrogant pet owners.

14. Dachshunds should never be out loose

They chase anything that moves and it is hard to see them from the car. No one who really loves the long little dogs would neglect them like this.

When you talk to your neighbor tell him about dachshund rescue. Sounds like he really doesn't want them, and rescue has lots of people who would love them and protect them.
