So the other day, my best
friend and I took her dog out
for a walk because he's never out and always tied up (he has to
be tied up or hell chase and kill the sheep on her dad's farm).
Usually he's a really happy dog but when he came out for the
walk he was super scared and
really timid.
Anyway, by the end of the walk he was coming out of his shell a bit
but then another dog was on the
road. And I knew straight away that it wasn't a nice dog. It
was a boxer dog and my friend's dog was a sheepdog called
shep.
The boxer dog pounced on Shep
and the lead was pulled out of my hand. Shep was too scared and timid to fight back and the
boxer was almost tearing him
apart.
My first instinct was to get
the boxer off Shep and I hit and kicked him but he wouldn't
budge. I tried so hard to get
him off.
It wasn't until I got home that I realised that the boxer could
have turned on me for hitting
it. And I felt stupid but
proud of myself at the same
time.
Stupid because I should have thought
before I acted.
Proud because it was my first instinct and action to try and save my friend's dog that I
never seen before. <3
ps. Shep's ok. The owners of
the boxer came and got him but aparantly it was our fault for not
having Shep on a lead even though he was. It was their dog that
wasn't on a lead and he didnt even have a muzzle on. My friends
dad called the gaurds and they said that a dog warden would have to
get involved and there would be a load of bother so they didn't
do anything about it.
