Quoted: My only hope of winning a battle against Mia when she's determined is with my words. Leave it, stop, stay, let's go, and a few other cues are all I really have. Thankfully, she does a good job of responding to me. View Quote No one was going anywhere til he felt like getting up again. |

Quoted: Mines a third of her size, and it amazing to see how strangers react to him. And same deal, working with him every day on manners. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: No shit. The bigger/more aggressive the dog the more serious the responsibility to control it. I dgaf if your 4lbs pocket Yorkie attacks me, I'll just kick it. Your 80lbs boxer comes at me there's a good chance it's getting shot. That said, the only reason I got big brother involved when me and my dogs got attacked by a pair of boxers was because the owners tried to laugh it off. Dogs aren't people, and sometimes shit happens, but don't pretend you aren't responsible if it does. Mia weighs 160 pounds and is seriously intimidating just standing there. I've working my ass off to make sure she's a polite, well behaved dog and I'm still working on it. It mortifies me to think what would happen if she was out of control. Mines a third of her size, and it amazing to see how strangers react to him. And same deal, working with him every day on manners. The ones that run in terror or the ones who let their kids run up to a strange dog and hug/pet/pull on it without a word to the owner? |

Quoted: She's probably batshit crazy, but I'm willing to take that risk. View Quote Everyone is bat shit crazy. 100% of the human race. It's just about finding compatible crazy you can live with. And the only way to find out is to take that risk. I'd take that risk with her, too. Just in case. |

Had one of our Transit vans go down a few weeks ago, got it to the Ford dealer on a hook.
Ford dealer said it needed a new motor. Boss said he was going to get a second opinion. Took it to the local guy that we've dealt with for years. He found a Ford recall that had not been done on the van that would cause the motor to die, just like it did. Local guy performed the repair and the van has been running fine ever since. |

Quoted: Quoted: Our Dane would decide he was tired halfway through a walk in the woods and just lie down. No one was going anywhere til he felt like getting up again. Yep. Gotta love giant breeds. Richard’s manner of protesting getting in the car after his vet visit was to flop into a pile of half melted jello when Duckski tried to load him up. “I SAID FLOP, SIR!” |

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: In regards to tonight's pitty thread.... ARF member is wrong. Control your dog. I was just reading that. I was surprised how many people were defending op. Apparently illiteracy runs rampant. You are correct. OP was way wrong. No shit. The bigger/more aggressive the dog the more serious the responsibility to control it. I dgaf if your 4lbs pocket Yorkie attacks me, I'll just kick it. Your 80lbs boxer comes at me there's a good chance it's getting shot. That said, the only reason I got big brother involved when me and my dogs got attacked by a pair of boxers was because the owners tried to laugh it off. Dogs aren't people, and sometimes shit happens, but don't pretend you aren't responsible if it does. That OP was super wrong. The only reason I feel comfortable owning dogs larger than I am is because I work my ass off to ensure they respect me and listen to my commands and direction even when they’re big enough I can’t make them. If an owner isn’t willing to invest that time and effort, they shouldn’t own big dogs. And if an owner somehow messes up, the person should own it and do the needful to make it right within reason. |

View Quote Yep. I find that if Mia and I do our best to avoid interacting with strangers on the trail (usually by giving them a wide birth) and warn strangers when they need access to my home that they should give Mia her space (ie don't try to touch her), confrontation is at a minimum if not non-existent. In that sense, Mia and I are peas and carrots. |
