well me and my bf took his 2 dogs to the dog park he recently found. It's small, but nice. It was the first time his two dogs have ever been to a dog park so we kept them on a leash for just a little while until we where comfortable with them being off leash. Both dogs did really well, even coming when called. (whooo!)
BUT there was this one HUGE (huge as in tall/stocky and very overweight) yellow lab that kept trying to hump his smaller dog (chi/boston). This dog was WAY too pushy about it and she was telling him to back off a few times and he did not listen at all! Plus the fact he was way larger than she is my bf picked up his dog to keep her from being squashed (which from the way things where going nothing was going to stop that lab!).
The owners immediately yell "no don't pick up your dog!." Of course its too late by then and the lab jumps up and wraps itself (full 150 lbs of it) around my bf's leg!! :yikes: The owners walk over (yes walk) saying that's why they told him not to pick up his dog because he's done that before. The dog left BIG gashes in my bf's leg! It was not a small thing.
I got mad and told them they shouldn't take their dog here anymore if it's going to behave like that or at least keep it closer. It was bullying the other dogs and just being pushy/rude, but the clinging is way too unacceptable, IMHO.
They just said they go there all the time and it only has happened a few times and leashed both their dogs and left. idiots.
How mad do you think you would be if that happened to you?
{{{{{And yes, you are not suppose to pick up your dog, but when your dog is about to get seriously injured because of a dog 5 times it's size, and there was no way to keep the other dog back away (I was trying my best but the **** thing weighs more than me!) I don't care if you loved your dog you would pick it up.}}}}}
