I told him in colorful terms that it is his behavior and the dog's behavior that needs modifying, not mine. I had the law go talk to them several times but it didn't help. I finally decided to pepper spray the mutt. He never came at me again after I hosed him, and I got some lagniappe when the owner tried to comfort the dog and got pepper spray all over himself while hugging the dog.
Lagniappe.............. a word I learned during my six year assignment in New Orleans. Yes, I know what it means to miss New Orleans............and the French Quarter, the food, zydeco, and the people. Friendships that have lasted for over 35 years.

Humm. I guess I've gotten off topic. Back to it. If a dog attacks you, make him decide that he will never make that mistake again. Golf club.
