I know, its just he was such a nice old dog & didn't deserve that.

I was chased by a Lassie once! Dang that was scarry.. The owners didn't tie him up & when I walked by he charged! I nearly strangled poor Max (he was just a little guy then) casue my first reaction was to run like hell, then grab the puppy & run faster! hehe

Our neighbours has a smooth Lassie & DANG, she had to be the meanest dog on earth!! Once again it was the owners fault. They knew I hatted that dog, because it would stick its head through OUR fence & try to attack us, Max & a BABY! So when ever I was in the garden taking care of my veggies, she would let the dog outside & I'd have to go in cause it would never stop snarling, snapping & trying to get through the fence. I moved out & then came back a couple years later & totally forgot about that darn dog! My friend & I were inbetween the garage & OUR fence, pulling baby trees & weeds (mom was allergic to them so she couldn't touch these ones), when all of a sudden the stupid owner saw us & let the dog out. The dog was only 1-2 inces from bitting us. We were yelling, as we couldn't move. Then the dog jumpped up & started at us that way, which was good cause she can't bite us when she up on the fence, so we try to run out. Stupid thing races after us, my friend got out just in time (I thought the dog bit her) & I was already running with a tree & cracked the dog over the head to avoid getting bitten. That was the first time I ever had to hurt a dog & felt horrible for the rest of the day.. I called the pound after that & I was the one who got in truble cause I was near OUR fence on OUR property!

Then they moved away YAY! & a new dog moved in.. The poor Rottie was nearly shot by the police too... Long story, but our neighbours stopped them from shooting him, as he was just horrible scared after falling out a window & didn't know how to get back in & was snarling at people who tried to go near him.. He's ok & they fixed the window.. Hes super friendly now, its just they had only been in the house for a weekend & he freaked cause of the storm & went through the window.. He only fell maybe 3 feet, so nothing but his pride was broken.. silly boy
