First, I have to say, that I have seen Mel
Sherman's Pippin running down the road from the village of Trout Lake to
Mel's house in order to get back before she got home from work- glad to hear he
has a kennel now...I was worried about him! (Hi Mel!!)
Second, I trained a mule who hated dogs - I think
alot of mules do. When she got out of the trailer in my barnyard, I was
surrounded by the typical herd of canines that follow me around (I do Springer
and Collie rescue). I think I had seven that summer. This poor mule
immediately connected me with that group of horrid creatures and I had a heck of
a time with her until I figured it out! I had to be careful when I rode
her down our road because if the neighbor dogs came near her, she would try to
stomp them! I was worried I would have to explain the crushed dog to the
owners! I had to lock my dogs in the kennel when I went out
to her paddock to feed her or work her.
I travel with my dog - but if he isn't allowed, he
stays home. period. If there is a leash rule, he is on a
leash. Personally, I would not own a dog who was dog or human
aggressive....I ran an SPCA and I saw 20 good dogs a week euthanized because
there were no homes. I have no time for a bad dog....
