Every time I drive down this same stretch of road (very very rural Arizona) ... this happens.

To get into town I have to drive through the very corner of the local Indian reservation. There used to be a couple dogs dog there waiting to chasing cars. Must have caught one...

That said if my dog is near the road (we're a quarter mile in) he'll chase cars, bikes etc. He seems to respect the train on the other side of the road. Probably because the train horn is so darn loud.

Welp, might as well get this post outta the way:




...lol, let them eat their dogs.
But the overall conditions and lack of sanitation in an open air meat market is not helping your public health problem.

My neighbor has a beagle that roams the country a bit. She's a pretty sweet dog, she comes over to hunt rabbits in our grove, plays with our dog, then moves on.

But she has a habit of running down the middle of the gravel road. It used to make me a bit nervous, coming up to her in a car, but she's got her head on a swivel, always checking behind her. When a vehicle approaches, she quickly runs down into the ditch to the edge of the fields, watches it go by, then hits the road again.

I just wish bicyclists would do the same thing.

welp, it finally happened.

The four new chickens were perched on the fence that separates the yard.
I went out there with the dog, figured I'd let the dog scare them back onto their side...
...the three older chickens do not really attempt to come over (because of the dog).

Anyways I did not bring the dog to heal, and even encouraged her a bit to break on the chickens.
So one of them was a bit slow and the doggo just barely got the chicken's foot as she went back over.
Chicken is limping now. There was just a few scratches and the chicken's lower leg, no broken bones from what I can tell, but the leg is limp.
I wonder if the pull (jerk) on her foot jerked her hip out of socket, or damaged a nerve or something.
She can hop around. The other older alpha chicken pecks at her .... knows she's injured and weak.

oh well, probably going to eat that one now.

Kinda works out really.
Dogs in general don't like young children because their movements are unpredictable and chaotic. From a dog's perspective it's the same as you or I walking past a head case ranting on the street corner.

Or chomp down on criminals with guns, so the police don't "have to" shoot the criminals and/or risk their own lives.
(to be clear, saving the criminal's life by mitigating the imminent cop-shooting-criminal-because-no-choice-situation).

Or find people on the verge of death buried in the ruins of earthquakes so the rescuers can find them.

Or go to war.

Or sniff out explosives, bombs that could injure innocent people. (war or in a civilian context)

Yeah, cats are awesome man.
Parakeets and gold fish won't rat the police out about the 10 kilos of fentanyl in your car that you were going to sell to children.
Dogs are lame.

I like the part when the rescuers were looking for injured people (dead bodies) in the ruins of 911 and the dogs just kept coming up with dead bodies and pieces ... and then every so often they had to 'plant' one of the rescue personnel to pretend like they were A STILL-ALIVE trapped person so the dogs wouldn't give up hope, and come down with quasi-PTSD from just finding dead bodies again again over and over.

I guess this would be the rebuttal to the rando people killing the raccoon-thing that was circulating last week .....

I guess what happened is the white (civilian) dog inside the fence got a hold of the K9's nose .... the K9 being the one who shoved its OWN head through the fence to get at the white dog... and the white wouldn't let go.

So what does the cop do? shoot the white dog, of course, with his pistol.
Couldn't use a baton, pepper spray, or any other means?
I'm pretty sure tasers only can be used a hand-held stun guns, etc.

What's funny, is say the Cop/Handlers values the welfare of the K9 infinitely over the life of the civilian dog,
because of bond, etc....Dog is an asset to the State ...probably cost $50,000 or something (total training, etc)...
... and a bunch of other reasons, which may or may not be valid.
But your K9 is prolly deaf now having a pistol gone off point blank next right next to its head.
I would just stick my own hand in there before I did that ....

Does pepper (or bear) spray generally work on those large-breed police dogs?
