Dog Owners

In my neighborhood there must be more dogs than people. But, some dog owners think their dogs are people don't they? Otherwise maybe they would not let them roam free at their own will going where ever their little dog legs take them. Take this morning for example. In my driveway while loading my car with my stuff to go to work, I hear a low growl at my back. Turning I see a golden retriever looking at me like "who the hell are you and why are you here?" The dog has seen my cat and thinks that breakfast is near. Startled, I try to shoo him off. He is not going anywhere. He paces back and forth, I guess wondering about me and what I will do to stop him from eating the feline. Eventually he barks and runs off after some poor soul who is jogging by the house.

That is no way to start the day.

This dog is owned by someone close by as I see him loping through the neighborhood often bothering the other dogs that are behind fences and coming in to my garage to see what he can get. I am really quite tired if it.

Folks, love your dogs! Keep them close to home.
