Which would trigger my wife's OCD psycho dog to start his ear-piercing barking and chase the red dot all over the house thinking that it was a critter.....

Update
I am happy to report that our first week with Zaya has been much better than expected! She has aclimated quickly including potty training and a steady decline in barking and crying at night or when alone. I followed steps I watched online and from the Breeder. I am also very happy that she loves the particular food choice I selected for her: NUTRO Ultra Puppy. The Breeder was pushing what most breeders do, Life's Abundance. After reading several unhappy owners reviews, I decided it was a hard pass. I highly recommend the NUTRO Ultra to anyone. Especially new puppy owners. The poop isn't very stinky and the consistency is easy to pick up. Her first visit to our Vet says she's in excellent health.

Any suggestions for hair cuts for those of you who regularly groom your pets? We are using mobile Grooming for less stress and exposure.
She received a shampoo and blow dry but she wouldn't allow the Clippers. Groomer says may take her getting a little older. |

Of course, some people just slap on those vests, and then trot their untrained dog around for pets and admiration, or to show off how clever they are to be able to take their dog into stores/restaurants etc. It is obvious they are seeking the petting/attention, but still wrong to give it. This is even worse b/c it makes people think that a service dog is a glorified pet, and will potentially lead to less public support or restrictions for these animals (so not petting here is a form of shaping the asshat's behavior more than for the dog). Quote:
I work with a local training program, and many patients who use service dogs; this is a very real problem for them. If you want to be supportive, act as you would if they were in a wheelchair or had a cast on (i.e. don't make a big deal out of it, but be accommodating if you can; and don't touch unless asked to). |

I agree with most of what Maynard said above.
But a real service dog will have a vest saying just that. It will not say 'Do Not Pet", which does not denote or connote training. A service dog should not be running & playing in the dog park with his "working clothes" on. Hominids do need to be educated about this. This particular dog is fairly old, has never bitten, but does not enjoy dominant petting. He is not aggressive, but he can scare people. I appreciate it when an owner tells us this, just as I appreciate a dog with a muzzle if needed. Onslow wears the below collar, but it is invisible because of his mane (his breed is in the AKC 'Working Group"). They still won't let him into the supermarket!

Would it be wise to bring a dog like that to a public dog park? If it were to bite because someone didn’t read or see the vest, is the owner still liable? Children don’t read vests and pet dogs all the time from what I’ve seen, and would you have to ensure everyone at the dog park can read English? That would be my fear.

^100%. If I knew my dog could possibly bite I would definitely muzzle it and I would never bring it to a dog park. An aggressive German Shepherd badly attacked my boxer puppy at a dog park. I saw red and broke the Shepard's rear leg. To be honest that Shepard is lucky I didn't kill it. Don't put dog owners in that situation.

Almost any dog can "possibly bite" (how did you break the dog's leg?). I don't think "Do Not Pet" is an aggressive dog, & I haven't heard of any complaints. But some dogs don't suffer aggressive hominids too well. Better to warn these people than to not. There are many people in Brklyn, many not too good with dogs. This is not the fault of the dog. The dogs can fight, which can lead to legalities (Onslow bloodied a Pittie this year, and sent a Rottie to the vet prior, with the owner trying to collect $$ from me). I've gone to court to get a dog out of the park. I've been bitten breaking up dog fights, but dogs that are aggressive towards the hominids aren't tolerated, & are eventually driven out. Murf PS: Remember what Lucy of "Peanuts" fame said to Snoopy: "You're a dog & you'll always be a dog!" If a hominid can't handle that, maybe they should have a cat.

This is the exact reason I don't allow anyone to pet or ride one of my mares. I don't take her on trail rides with other horses outside our own herd. She's nasty towards anyone and any horse she doesn't know and I don't have insurance that covers if she were to bite, kick, or throw someone or someone else's horse. I'd rather not be sued. She sure is a looker though Last edited by Sara; 02-07-2021 at 11:06 AM.. |

Yes, Onslow is my present Samoyed. All dogs survived! Onslow was attacked by both since he is very macho-alpha (or as we say, the lead dog in the sled team). But he is well trained, & for good measure wears an obedience collar. He also has great hair armor. The Pittie owner shook it off, the Rottie owner, not as well.
I'm glad you know your horse; if you don't know your animal, you are asking for trouble! They can almost be as bad as hominids.... Murf PS: My sister had a horse; I couldn't even have a go-kart.... |

Horses > go karts Should've asked your parents for a gelding!
My second horse is the complete opposite of her momma. She is the sweetest, most lovable mare. She used to lay in my lap as a foal and nap. She still thinks she's a lap horse I've raised her since birth, so I'm sure that has something to do with how sweet she is |
