Stupid People and Big Dogs

So I m trying to figure out why someone would walk over to my car and try to put their hand in it with a snarling and barking 125lb Mastiff ready to eat them. Then they look at me like I'm doing something wrong. It's not like she is running at them and trying to bite them, they are coming into her space and she is giving them a warning and protecting me. As they walk away they always mumble something like "stupid fucking dog" and I have to remind them no, you're a stupid fucking human. The scariest part is that those people aren't even the worst. The worst ones are those who want to ask if their child can ride my dog, WTF it's a dog not a horse! :eek:
 
It's surprising how many people are just retarded when it comes to dogs.

I had an ex that, whenever she would see a dog, she would make a bee-line for it with intent to pet. She once stuck her hand through a just-open-enough window to pet a flat-eared, growling Shepard and was sooo amazed when it snapped at her. What the fuck did you expect, you fucking coose? What the fuck's a-matter with you? Huh?! Where's my good kitchen knife and my nice grey slacks, you bitch?! I know you have 'em!!!

But, yeah, some people just don't have common sense.
 
Seems like charging two bits a ride would help offset the food costs for that monster. :D

Yeah, people are dumb. He probably would have tried to sue you as well had he been bitten while in the process of trying to steal something out of your car.

Next time leave KB in the car instead.
 
He says its more fun to have her go with me...She's the best cockblocker on the planet. If a guy in the next car even looks at me she barks at him.

PS. she is a well behaved pooch that is protective but listens when I say enough, she stops barking. I just don't want people to think that she is an out of control barking machine. With a dog that size you have to have complete control over any situation. As they say "with great power comes great responsibility."
 
There used to be a really aggressive dog behind a fence across the street from one of my favorite bars. It would snarl and bark ferociously at anyone who walked by on the sidewalk...

Well one night, a fellow I know, who tends to get stupid and confrontational when he has a few too many, was leaving the bar. He had had quite enough, and had just been cut off and told to go home. So this dog starts barking and the dude is all like "You're not so tough" and presses his face between the bars of the fence...

I'll let you use your imagination as to what happened.

Anyway, I hear chicks dig facial scars.
 
Dogs are the best, aren't they? I have a dog about half you mastiff's size (about 65-70 lbs., still pretty big), and she would jump in front of a bullet for me. She's very friendly, but when it comes to protecting me, I'm just waiting for the day that someone tries to break into my house and gets their face bitten off.
 
How stupid of those people..and its a shame because we have them everywhere and even where I live..Before I touch a dog I usually ask wether or not I can touch it because I know some people prefer their dogs not to be touched..(dont ask why) unless the dog has already came to me..

But yeah, totally understand you friend, so damn annoying!
 
I have a great pyrenees and people run up and try to mess with him while I am walking him... I mean if the big ass logging chain, that I have him hooked to, doesn't say "Back the fuck off" then pulling back a stub is your reward, for being too damn stupid.
 
These people that go near dogs in amusement, as if the animal is a bloody McDonald's happy meal toy, deserve to be bitten by dogs. I mean. a persons stupidity most be one of an epic amount, if they would go near, never mind touch a giant dog! Even if people consider them selves to be "animal lovers" and have a "connection" with them. Also, asking you if their child could ride a dog? You do worry about the logic of some people.

Personally, I try to avoid all dogs, i just get nervous if one is in the same area that I am ! Thankfully most dog owners keep them on a leash and are responsible for them. But some aren't

One day I was walking back to my home, minding my own business. I see this dog, kinda looked like a race hound dog, I'm not an expert on them. It did not have a leash. I was walking ever near it, nervous, as i always am with random dogs. The dog all the sudden runs towards me and attacks my right leg, barking like no tomorrow! I stand there looking petrified at this animal, I look up and see this over weight middle age woman, beaming with a smile at me. She said this to me while I was being attacked by her dog, with no tone of sarcasm. She said
"Oh I think he is hungry, I have not fed him today, aw"
How the fuck is that suppose to make me feel! I'm already scared senseless. And now you're telling me that your under fed dog, that is attacking me, thinks I'm his next meal?!? Thanks!

But anyways, that's my little rant on a minority of dog owners. Most are responsible for their pets, but some just don't deserve the responsibility of owning a potential wild beast.

I'm sure that most dogs are friendly to their owners and I'm okay with dogs that are my friends. You get to know them. But the dog that I see walking towards me on the street. I immediately worry lol.
 
Dude, that sounds like my neighbour. She owns a bunch of greyhounds and is middle-aged and overweight. xD But I don't think she starves them and just lets them off the leash.

Man most people are dumb-arses when it comes to animals in general. They think all animals are going to be docile and love them immediately. It's like... they're an animal you dumb-arse. It really depends what your dog looks like for people to either back off or want to pet it. If it's a nice colour, say gold or sandy/ orangey they tend to like it I've observed, hence wanting to pat it and get close to it. My dog has rottweiler markings and no one wants to mess with it. Even when it's just limping along like it does - all the old guys are like 'is he going to bite me?'

My dog hates little kids though. He will just start snapping at one as they walk past. My theory is he can smell their fear. *Tries not to get a lawsuit* :flamed:

Lol @ using your dog as cock-blocker. It's also funny when you see a guy walking a tiny dog and then they look over and see a chick with a massive muscly dog.
 
Proper procedure for initiating contact with random dogs:

Approach the OWNER respectfully, without paying attention to the dog.

Ask the owner's permission to pet the dog.

Still not paying attention to dog, lower your hand (in a slow, non-threatening manner) to allow the dog to sniff it.

If the dog barks, growls, stiffens, snarls, bares teeth, etc, pull your hand away and do not attempt to pet it.

If the dog continues to sniff with no sign of alarm, now look at the dog, tell it that it's a good boy/girl, and pet it slowly.

Edit: This applies to dogs which appear calm and well-adjusted. Obviously if the dog is barking a lot, appears anxious or scared, back off.
