hi ..there .

went into flight or fright mode today ....me and my h and our puppy came outside to just be out because it was so nice out and we were going to take a walk to the mail ....well I got the shock of my life .......I came up to the side of my house and just turned to look dowen the side of the house ..because I have voted use to ..having that dog in the yard growling at us ...and my h was having a hard time getting him out of the yard ......so this is the dog that my h called ...the dog catcher on .....and it isent the dogs fault it is his owners for not keeping him tied and you can understand a dog getting louse once in a while ....but not every day ....so the dog hasent been around since the dog catcher went out to see them ....but I still .felt I needed to check ...and when I turned to check and see if the dog was in the yard and he was ...about 10 feet and comming at me ..and when I saw him I gess I jumped ...and drew my breath in because that is what my h said and it alerted him that somthing was wrong .......the dog is ..Irish wolf hound and a mix of a cupple other breads so it is a big dog .......it is bad enough I can't go for a walk dowen the street ...because ..there are louse dogs ...big dogs ....but I will be damed if .i can't be in my owen back yard ......so any way ....all I saw was the dog and it went into the position ..ware they spread there frount feet .....and put dowent there head hunch up there back ....and look up at you .....than ..they raise there hair and groule  at you .....this is ware if they are going to bit you ....this is all the worning you get ......so I saw that and I just went right into the flight or flight ....and ..I frozw and was ready to fight ...because ... .he was to close to run .....but his oner was right behind him ....and I have had a bad migrain for .two days ...so was on my painkillers ...to....well ..I told that man exactualy what I thought of his dog being in my yard ...and he saw how I reacted to his dog ...so he knowes I am afraid of this dog ....i yeled at him ......that ..it a dog is going to bits some one it will bit me ..and I said I have grandchildren comming here and if he bites one of my grandchildren ..that dog I'd gone ....I told him he dog grouldEd at us and puts it hair up on his back and barkes at us .....so he informed me his dog was a good dog friendly dog ..so I saig ..ok ..I give you that you dog might be friendly with your family and you friends that come areound him but when his doge comes into our yard he is anything but friendly ..he is thre ting us ...and if this keeps up I am or one of my gramdchildren are going to get bites ....and that dog is gone .....than he informal me that the dog has been doing very good being supervised ....outside he still hasent been tying up his dog ....I was pised ...we keep our dog then up ...ware is he going to go to protect his self if that dog comes after him ...I curesed a bit but than calmed a bit ...but he knowes ware I stand .....now .....I had to leave and go for a walk he still hadent caught his dog ..........and the dog had tried to come to me three times ...I am not one to talk like people like that ....I domt fight with people .....but when you go into that flight or flight ...you just fill up with so much adrenalin ...my heart was pounding ....because the dog Capet comming to me ..we had to leave the ware so he had a better chance catcheing the dog .......so now I can just imagin ..what he had to tell his friends ..not only is there a crazie traler thre ting to get rid of his dog if he dident keep it away from here ...but now his wife is just as nuts .....it took me quite a while to come dowen gog of that adrenalin  high and it was not a good feeling ...because ...you are out of breath ....and I was not turning from the dog I was ready to fight till I saw the ...owner ..behing him ....and when he told me that he was doing good being supervised ..and for some reason he bolted ........I was couldent belive he  after the dog catcher went to his house ..he was not keeping his dog tied up ........we had to go for a walk and I had to calm dowen get out of that flight or fight ...fase in was in .....but at least he knowes ware I stand ............iut put up with not being able go for a walk ....dowen my streat ....with ought being with my h .......because of the big doges ..who will folow me with there hair up on there backs .....that people are not keeping tied up ...notin my yeard ...I am hoping he will  be keeping ..his dog tied up now ....it must of taking me 3 hours ...to calm dowen ..from having my systen from having all the adrenaline ...pushed through my bodie ...and than we went to bed right after supper because we were both exhausted ....and dident get up till 10 ocloock ........I do  feel much better ........migrain ......on more meds for it ......so after newes we will be going back to bed ..................so if these people had any friends ..at all here ..I gess they would tell people that there is a crazie trapper that will get rid of his dog for just being in his yard and now they can say his wife is just ....as crazie as him ....lol ...........this is the first time we have had this problem here at the lake since we have been living here .......over 40 years .......I could use some prayers that that dog stayes away .....that the opener ....takes his responsponcible .sereciously ...........so the dog doesn't have to suffer because of his owner ........and so that no one here gets bitten ......this did not help my migrain ....take care ....God bless ..don't be shy to coment on this ....
