People are idiots. :rofl1:
Sooo.... doing math all day, had to get out of the house and take a break, so I take Jackson up to walk at this big park 5 mins down the street, a ton of baseball fields and such, plus a nice walking trail through the woods.
Well I pull up in my car and there's this older couple (probably early 60's) with a Portageus Water Dog, very cute guy, off leash. I don't care, I don't think there's any signs that state dogs have to be on leash and the dog is behaving nicely so *shrugs*... but typically, I never see off leash dogs here and it's fairly quiet and non-busy.
So anyways, I park, and this woman comes walking over to my car so I'm kind of like wtf. I don't even have time to unbuckle my seatbelt when she's OPENING MY BACK DOOR and telling my dog to "come on out!" :yikes: Thankfully, Jackson has enough sense to me like "who the eff is this person?" and he usually looks to me for guidance first.
I was like "NO, don't let him out!" and she was like shocked and shut the door real quick. "Oh, will he run?"
I just said YES, even though he probably wouldn't have. That's beside the point. WTF opens up a stranger's back door and willingly lets their dog loose? First off, their dog was big, what IF God forbid, Jackson did not LIKE big dogs... or their big dog did something to mine, or whatever. And WHAT IF my dog had darted out of the car and went and got hit by a car and it was these idiot's fault? Ummm, like, HELLO.
My mind is blown.
