Jogging can be bad for your health! Wel at lesst when it involves dogs it can. So basically on monday i woke up at about 6:30 to go jogging just so that i can keep fit and i went ot the park next to my dorms. So i am running around the park bored out of my mind and wondering what the appeal was with this and as i'm ging round the field i notice this alsatian not on its ****ing leash which the owner held in his hand. It did not bother me because i thought the owner thought the dog was well behaved and that it did not need to be put on a leash or muzzled preferably. So i am going around the park and each time i notice the dog and i think nothing of it. Then after a while i hear this heavy panting behind me, and this ****ing beast is charging towards me, at first i saw the funny side of the situation since this is not the first time i have been chased by a dog for unknown reasons... and i thought dog would leave me alone after 10 seconds. It didn't and then fear ran violently through me. I could only think of the incidences of people geting mauled in recent weeks and i belted it like my life depended on it. I was able to put some distance between the dog and i while i constantly shouting at the dog telling it to to **** off. The owner was behing me yelling at his dog to leave me alone while at the same time telling me not to show an alsatian running towards me at full speed fear  I was scared ****less and i heard my keys in my hand just incase the dog got too close and i needed to teach it why it should never chase strangers who have now wish to have their face look like a dog's dinner. So as i am running for what seems like one tortourous minute and i am getting really tired and that dog is catching up with me like it was possessed. To make matters worst one of my shoes slips and the dog did not try fetch it. So my idea to throw my other show into incoming trafiic would probaly have let me with nothing but ****ed up shoes, a mauled face and wet, muddy feet. So i keep running after a while i slip. And i am thinking. **** it, stop giving the dog the benefit of the doubt, blind the bitch, throw my keys in its face and should it get any closer i should break its ****ing jaw and there is not a judge in the country that would convict me. Finally the owner is able to control his animal and chastises his pet for chasing me and i am ****ing shook. He then says i should not have showed it any fear, and i was like i would rather not run the risk of being an easy meal for the dog. |

This kinda thing happened to me once except I was walking with a skateboard in my hand through a park and gigantic dog kept running in circles around me and charging at times. I was scared at first but then I remembered I could smash the dog with my skateboard if it came at me so I just kept my eye on it and kept walking. Without the board I would be pretty damn scared though. ___________________ dani tuga?

The dog owner was right in saying that you shouldn't have shown any fear, dogs pickup on fear so easily, most animals you have to show them who is dominant with the exception of bears  . German Shepherds aren't normally aggressive dogs(though they can get pretty damn big), unless they're mentally ill. I'd say it's just a bad owner, didn't the owner even apologize to you? |

I'd take the dog head on. Show no fear & they'll cower. Besides, so long as you can manage to not be toppled onto the ground, you're probably big enough to smack the sh*t out of a dog. |

How to fight off a dog: Go for its jaws. Just grab and yank. You'll likely end up getting some cuts on your fingers, but it's better then those teeth clamping down on you. Also, another trick is to grab the lower jaw of a dog with one hand and try to push the dog's lips upwards so that it curls up over its own teeth. The dog might reflexively resist button on its own lips. And one final trick, though a bit tricky, that I read from a book. Grab it's two hind legs and pull in opposite directions to dislocate its legs from its hips. ___________________ "I have captured the enemy for meat testing! Praise me!

You should never run from a dog. Just face right at them, and even start running at them if they try to attack. This reminds me my grandma had a duck that always tried to attack me at the exact moment I turned more than 90 degrees from him. The stupid thing got eaten a little while later by a raccoon though. |
