Well I took Boozer to the park today for a good hour and a half walk. He does just great, its so fun to have him with me there. But the damndest thing happened. Some woman was walking with her son, i'd say about 7-10 years of age and he was not listening to her and was running off and throwing trash into the water. Well I was gettin close and she saw me and yelled at the boy, "Look the big bad dog is coming, he's mean and is goin to bite you!!!" i assume she'd think i thought it was funny. Well he comes back and tries to kick boozer, and she was like "he's a mean dog and will bite you if you dont listen to me!!!" and he was yelling "ugly dog, mean dog". I was furious. I said "Excuse me mam, but my dog is just a 5 month old puppy and he is not mean and he would never bite for the life of him, dont tell your son that." She said she was only saying that to scare him. I replied "Well that is not the way, its sad that you have to teach your son that dogs are mean and they will bite, its just wrong and rude." She said my dog was a filthy animal, and i said "from the looks of it, my dog is cleaner than you and your son, and my dog actually respects me as his mother and listens to me the first time." With her son still throwing rocks and trash at the ducks, I walked off with mine and boozers head held high. Its just sad how some mothers are these days... and this is why we have so many children abusing dogs and animals nowadays.
