You are an absolute idiot.
My dog is the most gentle, placid, friendly dog that I have ever met, and I am disgusted with your behaviour. If you will notice, my dog was happily walking off lead, by my side, minding his own business, when from about 800 yards away, your FOUR out of control, untrained dogs came charging at him. Despite what you think about having them under control, you efforts to call them back fell on deaf ears, and they continued to charge. Your german shepherd ran towards my dog growling with his teeth bared, and despite my dogs best efforts to hide behind me and escape your dog, he was subsequently attacked, all the while you just stood there like a muppet, saying 'he's not my dog' (as if that somehow excused the fact that he had his teeth firmly around my dogs leg) while my poor dog squealed and cried.
Once you had finally got your dog under control, and you passed me and my PETRIFIED dog, did you not think that maybe letting go of him again was possibly a VERY bad idea? I had just screamed at you to put him on a lead, yet when you were no more than 50 yards away from us, you let go of him. How could you not have anticipated that he would just turn around and run back towards my dog for another go? Which of course was exactly what he did.
You not only put my dog in danger, but you also put me in danger, because trying to wrestle a german shepherd off my poor dog could have resulted in serious injury. And while the law does not seem to give a stuff about a dog attacking another dog, they do not look kindly on a dog attacking a human.
Thank you for standing there like a fucking muppet and doing nothing.
I do not give a flying fuck that the dog was not yours, as a dog walker it is actually your JOB to ensure that you keep uncontrolled aggressive dogs ON A LEAD. It actually makes it worse that you are walking a dog that you clearly don't know very well, along with three other dogs, and allowing them ALL to be off lead. Had they all been aggressive then my dog wouldn't have stood a chance.
May I also highlight that while he was being bitten and growled at, ALL my dog tried to do was run away, he did not attack, he did not growl, he just tried to escape. He did not even go near your dog in the first place.
I am SO angry. You probably won't ever read this, but I am horrified at your lack of responsibility. I cannot believe that after allowing your dog to attack mine TWICE, you STILL allowed him off his lead once we were firmly past you. You absolute utter moron. I sincerely hope I see you again, because you owe me not only a huge apology, but I would also like a significant contribution towards the vet bill that this has incurred.
People like you should NEVER be allowed to own a dog.
