my toy can probably beat a lot of your big flossy dogs anyday. well, at least in my book
That attitude is precisely what irritates me about small/toy dogs and their owners. Sorry I have a super powerful 105lb dog who could rip darn near anything to shreds - ie 'beat a lot of dogs' and could certainly kill a small dog easily. Do I think that's a good thing - no. I don't have any use for people who think aggressive dogs are "cute" and let's face it thats toy/small dog owners that think its cute when their tiny dog is aggressive.
Just this morning the 5 little terriers/mixes came charging at myself and my dog this morning (mentioned in an earlier post - one nipping his feet, all 5 barking and growling. He's on a leash and thinking what the h** is this all about. I have had enough of this as it happens regular and I pushed the nipping open away. Personally anyone who thinks this is 'cute' is an idiot. Because it wouldn't be cute if my "big flossy dog" reacted to their aggression and bit them would it?
Yes I am peeved about this today more than most - and your statement just lit a fire under the already smoldering cinders.
Another example of isn't it amusing when my small dog attacks a large dog happened last summer. My sister has a virtually untrained westie who attacks any dog that walks passed the house. This summer she attacked a GSD at one point latching onto one of the GSD's ears. I wonder how funny sis would have found it if the GSD latched on to her westie.
Yes there are responsible small/toy dog owners but man oh man I've not met the large dog owner that thinks aggression is "cute"
I hope your toy fox terrier doesn't take on the wrong "big flossy dog" - don't complain if your dog doesn't "beat' it.
