You never know when this man will be out, if I were in your situation I would carry pepper spray. Just ignore the guy and if that dog attempts to go near your dog again give him a face full of it. I hate to sound mean, but you have to protect your dog.

If the guy gets mad and starts flying off the handle, just tell him you had asked him to control his dog and he refused.

(And the pepper spray will work on him too if need be!)

I always have pepper spray with me and so far whenever I just point it towards a loose dog or unattended dog and say "No" it stops them dead in their tracts, I really think that they can sense that I mean it.

I'm so sorry to hear about this terrible experience, I know it is both shocking and scary. But unfortunately not everyone a responsible dog owner.

Normally I wouldn't consider the following, but since you run into each other on occasion, you might consider carrying some *mace* to protect both of you against man and animal... esp. since he's totally irresponsible and has no intentions on doing anything about it.

Our neighborhood postman LOVES Diego and the neighborhood happens to have a few should-be-euthanized dogs and he gave me the kind of mace the post office uses. Frankly, I haven't brought it with us on walks but probably will once it starts getting dark outside at an earlier hour.

UNFORTUNATELY NOT ALL "MACES" ARE EFFECTIVE ON BOTH MAN AND BEAST, BUT TASERS ARE PRETTY COOL! :LOL:

BUT I DO AGREE ABOUT GETTING A GOOD "DOG REPELLENT" MACE AND IF THIS "PORN STAR" SHOULD RELEASE HIS DOG GIVE IT A GOOD LONG BLAST DIRECTLY INTO IT'S FACE!

AND THEN IF THE "PORN STAR" TRIES ANYTHING WHILE THE DOG IS RUNNING AROUND IN A BLIND DAZE AIM IT AT HIM AND ASK IF HE'D LIKE THE SAME, OR A DOUBLE!

EVEN IF THE REPELLENT ISN'T EFFECTIVE ON HUMANS HOW'S HE GONNA KNOW UNLESS YOU HAND IT TO HIM TO READ. BUT IF I WAS YOU I'D ALSO CARRY A GOOD PEPPER SPRAY JUST FOR HIM!

YOU CAN ALWAYS REACH FOR IT AS YOU ARE ASKING HIM IF HE'D LIKE A DOUBLE.:LOL:

AND DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE JUMBO SIZE CONTAINER EITHER, AS SOMETIMES IT DOES HAPPEN TO THEM, IT MIGHT LOOSE IT'S PRESSURE AND FAIL YOU WHEN YOU NEED IT MOST, AND YOU'LL PROBABLY, ONLY NEED IT ONCE, IF EVER.

THE PLUS TO A TAZER IS THAT IT USES BATTERIES, GIVES YOU TWO SHOTS FROM ONE DEVICE (ONE FOR THE DOG AND ONE FOR HIM), WORKS ON ANY LIVING CREATURE, TOTALLY AND INSTANTLY INCAPACITATES YOUR ATTACKER, AND SHOULD THE EFFECTS START TO WEAR OFF BEFORE YOU THINK THEY SHOULD JUST HIT THE BUTTON AGAIN! (OR AS LONG AS YOU WANT TO EVEN!):LOL:

THEY ARE LOADS OF FUN AND I BET IT COULD HELP KEEP YOU ENTERTAINED BY THEM FOR HOURS!:LOL: (SIT PRETTY, BZZZZ, LAY DOWN,BZZZ, TWITCH, BZZZ, BZZZZZ, BZZZZZ) JUST THINK OF IT AS A REMOTE CONTROL FOR "THE RECTAL/CRANIAL INVERTED":LOL:

IF YOU ARE THAT WORRIED THOUGH, GET SOME KIND OF PROTECTION, LEARN HOW TO ACCURATELY USE IT WHILE EXPERIENCING EXTREME ADRENALIN RUSHES, AND WHEN YOU DO PULL IT, USE IT! RIGHT THEN AND THERE, DON'T LET THEM HAVE THE CHANCE TO SEE THAT YOU MAY BE NERVOUS ABOUT IT!

HAPPY TRAILS....

After meeting both you and Zach this weekend I cannot imagine how ANYONE could be rude to you!!! This man is definately ill. Be careful, as someone posted above, you do not know what kind of nut he is and you don't want to get him going after you. Hopefully, he has given the dog back to the real owners and the issue will resolve itself.

Take care and big boxer slurps to Zach from me. lovicon

I totally agree with Elizabeth. how can anyone be mean to Zavh. I just don't see it happening. Or to you. Well we all already know how many crazies there are out there. i'm sure you've come across your share being from New York and all I know I have. Just be careful. I wouldn't want anything to happen to you guys. let us know how things go.

Pepper Spray Alternatives

I learned of a couple alternatives for pepper spray/mace (although I do like the tazer idea):

* Carry a push-button type umbrella and open in the face with a commanding "no", "go home/away". I think the theory is that if you open it in the strange dogs face, it will startle the dog and buy you some time so you and your dog can get to a safe place. It also forms a bit of a physical barrier.

* A small spray bottle that has 80% Water and 20% Vinegar. Verbally instruct the dog to go home or go away. Give a quick squirt at the mouth area if it continues. (No harm to the dog - they'll just smell like a noisy salad!) :)
