I was standing in the main street today, and I saw this gorgeous dog. He looked like he might be part collie, and he had a lovely brown and black wolfish looking coat. Just walking around, minding his own business. Then he went in the direction of this guy, and I couldn't believe it when the guy kind of lunged at the dog, trying to scare him away. It worked. The poor thing leapt about a foot in the air and skidded backwards. Then he crossed the road to get away from him. I have seen a few people do that sort of thing and I want to know why. I mean, the dog wasn't doing any harm. Probably just wanted to say hello and then that bastard went and scared him. It's mean and cruel. It doesn't cost anything to just pat the dog and talk to him for a while.
