Hey, if a chihuahua will attack, what make you think a bobcat won't? Stranger things have happened.

Don’t know, never walked with him, but he used to work for NASA and I don’t think he just does things Willy-nilly.

I am a walker and a cat person. I usually walk on the water side when I encounter a dog walker . Have not met a mean dog yet .. in 6 years. I meet protective dogs that sit in front of their owners or bark once or twice to do their guard dog thing. All have been well behaved fortunately and I’m a petite woman. These are fur babies to me, and responsible owners. I am in South Villages near Linden. I think the dogs sense your personality. No mean dogs here.

A long time ago we lived in Port St. Lucie. We moved there before it had been built up and there were woods all around. I walked early before the sun came up to give me plenty of time for a long walk with my dog before work. One morning my dog and I walked by a house we had walked by many times before. It was about 6:30 am and still dark. A dog came out of it's yard, sat in front of my dog and started growling at her. My dog weighed about 55 lbs. and the other dog I'm guessing weighed about 85 lbs. The dog kept growling. My sweet girl just sat by my side. She never growled. She was calm. I told the dog to get away and threw in a few choice words. I don't know how long this lasted but it felt like forever. The dog growling and my dog just sitting there. Finally, the owner of the dog came out of her house, in her bathrobe with a cup of coffee in her hand. She just stood there, watching ... I said "WOULD YOU CALL YOUR DOG OFF!!!" She called her dog and it immediately went to her side. We never walked by that house again. After telling people about our story I learned to carry mace, or bear spray just in case. |

Follow the Navigation Rule on Collisions. Avoid the RISK of a collision. In other words, avoid the risk even if you are right.

If you walk a lot using walking sticks are a good idea. The aluminum ones are very light weight!

That's why we love them. Almost no amount of abuse will make them get even with their owners. They live in the moment and a pat on the head makes everything all right.

No sport in that. Some of us are mostly dead already. Don't push! I said, "mostly dead", not, "completely dead".
