That's what the man was yelling at me. The man who's dog was chasing me and totally ignoring his commands to return. I wondered why he thought I was gonna listen to him when his dog wouldn't. What he didn't know is that I wasn't afraid of his stupid dog, and indeed I hoped it was gonna keep following me back to the road where I had a good chance of getting it killed. He has another more vicious dog which fortunately he had on a leash, but I wouldn't have done anything different.
I went straight back home, got my wife's pepper spray, and headed straight back, but by that time he had his dogs back in his vehicle. Not sure why because he promised me that he would be there all day waiting for me? He threatened me a bit more, and called me a retard, but I totally ignored him. Just showed him my spray.
I am sick and tired of this fucker and his fucking dogs chasing my wife and I, and I am even more sick and tired of his verbal abuse, and I'm done with it! I'm going running at the same spot every day until I see him again, and if one of his fucking beasts approaches me it's gonna get sprayed. If that don't work (but it will), the sawed off hockey stick I'm gonna start carrying will come after the spray.
Other than that I had a lovely day, working on my sons house. :)

It's too bad you can't take the pepper spray and or hockey stick to the man, because it's not really the dogs fault. I suppose you could but there would probably be ugly consequences.

i had the same thoughts!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Sorry there's people like that out there amongst us. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteHave a read of this blog Peter. They agree with you and Roo! So sorry you and Roo can't have a peaceful running place.

So frustrating! It is frustrating because of the way this person treats you and because of they way they treat their dog. The stupid, toxic masculinity that is always apart of these situations also frustrate me to no end. Men who think they're "real" men because they have dangerous, aggressive dogs that put others in harms way (and the dogs themselves in harms way) and treat other people like garbage.
