My dog got into a fight with another two today. All three were off lead and the other two bounded over to mine, mine snarled and then it all kicked off.
There was no way of separating them safely, and it was all snarling, barking, showing teeth and leaping about, looked and sounded really nasty but no biting or injuries.
The owner of the other dogs waded in with one of those ball throwers and whacked his dog to get it to move away, after less than a minute all dogs were back under control.
Should I have done something different? My dog doesn't like other dogs, he will tolerate them having a sniff but then he moves away. If they persist he will show teeth and then most back down, or their owners call them away. This incident really shocked me though .
