Little Dogs & Little Kids

Have you ever noticed it's the small dogs that are worst when it comes to barking and chasing you down the street?

As I was jogging about the neighborhood this morning there was a little boy outside with his mom who asked me, "Why are you running?" Ha, ha, ha!

It wasn't from the dachsund, I assure you.

    I 100% agree...the little dogs are the worst. I have actually been bit by a stinkin' little dog while running! Kids do say the darnedest things:).

    Venezuelans seem to love little dogs... they like to dress them, carry them around, or even push them in a doggy stroller (?), weird. And yes, you're right Sonja those little dogs get so... ah... excited when they see a jogger. Yesterday there was one barking so loudly I could barely hear my iPod. Impressive, actually, since he was no bigger than my running shoe.

    On my last run at the local state park, Chatfield, I had a dog/owner confrontation (One of my favorite "pet" peeves...ha ha). Signs all over the place say dogs must be leashed and the fine is $50. Additionally, it has about a five or ten square mile designated off-leash area. So the dog is running circles around me with teeth bared, fur raised, growling, barking, attempting to get behind me, and the owner says,"She's friendly." If she would have just said,"Sorry," I would have waved and run on. This obviously untrue remark got my ire up and I said,"Friendly?! Like that (as it snapped at me)? That's not friendly! That's what a leash is for!" Obviously, I'm not a dog lover. My favorite part of Anchorman was when Jack Black punts the little dog, oh how I'd love to do that.
