Hannah4181 260 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 I took my sisters 11 week old dalmation puppy and spider my 1 year old beddyXwhippet down to the local water meadows today. The meadows consist of about 500acres of open pasture with the river running through the middle, very pretty and extremely popular with dog walkers. I use it mainly to socialise puppies, as it is always full of dogs and a great experience for pups. So we'd been there about an hour, and had met about 30/40 different dogs. . . . . . my lurcher had met 2 greyhounds which wore him out, and the dalmation pup was starting to get really confident with the variety of dogs. I'd got chatting to a guy with a couple of spaniels and there was 8 dogs playing together at this point. Suddenly from no where a horrid little tan chihuahua with quite long legs came flying over, straight up to the group of dogs. It instantly started attacking anything it could, with real agression, no messing it wanted blood!! The dogs all scattered and all hell broke loose, owners running to grab dogs, dogs running around with this bloody chihuahua hanging off them . . . . it grabbed hold of Spiders front shoulder and was trying to shake him, back legs of the ground . . . . .Spider is such a docile dog and has never shown any signs of aggression at all. He looked terified and jumped to get out the way, the chihuahua let go then went for the dalmation puppy, before turning and running back to get spider . . . . It really was chaos, no sign of an owner around and the thing was manic, it was flying at spider and then the funniest thing i have seen for a long time! Spider looked at me in panic, looked at the approaching chihuahua and as it jumped for his neck, he just nailed it as if it were a rabbit! No aggression, he is very soft mouthed with rabbits, and literally picked this snarling little shit of a dog up and retrieved it to me!!! It was hysterical he was holding it across it's back/shoulders, so it was unable to turn and bite him, it's little legs were dangling out of each corner of his mouth!! It was brilliant ! All the other owners were cracking up. He brought it up to me and just held it looking at me. . . . i didn't take it off him because it was seriously angry and i knew it would kick the shit out of him! At that point this stupid women arrived . . . . going crazy, "your dog is killing my baby" stop him stop him!! I calmly explained that her "baby" had attacked 5 of the dogs there including a puppy, and that actually all my lurcher was doing was restraining it! i got Spider to drop the chihuahua and the lady scooped it up and left in rage of abusive comments! So so funny! Some of the owners down there were telling me that it happens every day and the dog is savage, apparently lots of them have complained to the local police and country park rangers about he "savage chihuahua " . . . . . . i may take my dog aggressive JRT down there tomorrow to "MEET" it! :tongue4: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

webby 31 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 (edited) the word shotgun springs to mind. if a lurcher or terrier did that then the arspca would be round straight away to take all your dogs because they were trained for fighting. my lurcher has done the same with a few chavy staffs but it showed no mercy so a bin bag was needed. only joking Edited April 13, 2009 by webby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Halfinch 51 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Classic!!!! Yours sounds a well trained dog. I Know what you mean about taking the JRT there, but as usually happens, you and your JRT will probably end up in the shite if he gives the chihuahua whats coming, better you give the owner a lesson in er!!!! Control. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hannah4181 260 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Although i couldn't stop laughing when it was hanging out either side of spiders mouth!!! . . . . . . . .. It is infuriating that someone has that little control, i work hard with my dogs to make them sociable, controlled and well mannered, unfortunatly there was no helping my JRT, because of that he just doesn't go out to public places, he stays on the farm and has more than enough land to do as he pleases. The whole point of going there today was to socialise the dalmation pup, so she to will grow up well mannered and under control . . . . bad experiences like today can scare a pup for life, fortunately she's a confident pup and used to being "told off" by my dogs when she gets a little over zealous, hopefully todays little incident won't have any impact on her as an adult dog. Was very tempted to throw it of the bridge we were standing next to at the time, i'm sure the pike would have enjoyed him! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 You're a lot more patient than me Hannah. I would've bitch slapped the woman, never mind the chihuahua! I like chihuahuas to be honest, but like any other dog they need to be properly trained and socialised. They are dogs, not wittle pwince and pwincesses ffs! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
