So next question:
When I was a kid you didn't have to be so politically correct with pets. Ours got out of the yard and went wherever they wanted, without tags on. My poodle, Valentine, fathered a family, but the mother was a black poodle too, named Desiree, so her pet mom was happy about it. Valentine loved his babies and spent hours with them sometimes. But other times he would come running home with a steak or a piece of chicken in his mouth.
I don't know how we could have stopped him. If he didn't climb the vines and go over the fence, he'd dig out underneath. Everybody in the neighborhood knew him, but we had no complaints when peoples' barbecue food went missing, so he must have gone a few blocks further afield.
So did you manage your pets and keep them at home except when walking them, or did they roam?
Keep them at Home.
One though, Bubba, an American Pit Bull Terrier, would always jet towards the door to get outside. He made it through the door a couple times. One time, I didn't find him. My heart was turn up on not finding him. Don't remember if the dog pound called or if I called them. I always left his collar on him, just in-case of the above happing, it had my phone digits on the tag. Well, I couldn't just go pick him up, had to go through court, Thankfully, it was before the powers at be made a law to, I think, have an outrageous insurance policy on those breeds. The judge did notice that Bubba was a nice good doggie, that never bit anyone (as he knew of) and was good with the dog catcher, so he decided to let me just take him home. Oh, was I so very very very HAPPY !!
On the bitting part...he did bite one guy. I was at a gas station, windows rolled down, I was inside the store, I knew the guy, but Bubba didn't, he decided to put his hand through the open window and chomp Bubba got him. He knew it was his fault and Bubba was just protecting his territory.
Than another incident happened. I let a guy borrow some money, but I shouldn't have, Bubba felt him. Before I gave him the money, Bubba lounged for him, jumping over a sofa to get to him. Thankfully, some how I was able to stopped him. The guy never paid me back.
I remember, sitting in a lounge chair outside, holding onto a leash that was connected to Bubbas harness. LOL, Bubba wanted to chase a squirrel, he pulled me out of the chair, man, he was a strong doggie, but I held on while my body was being dragged on the grass, and yes, I did stop him,
Do or don't you have one foot bigger than the other one?
