What ever happened to "Don't bite the hand that feeds you?"

This weekend, I was petsitting my neighbor's dog (Cody) and a friend's dog (Sadie) next door. Cody is an extremely friend pup but Sadie definitely has some issues...the first time I met her, she snapped at my fingers. Because she's so skittish and weird at times, you have to be cautious with her. I was over there feeding them yesterday morning and after I filled their bowls, I slowly started to walk out of the yard...when all of a sudden, I felt a dog nip my leg. That d**ned dog had just bit me!! No blood but a nice bruise on my leg now.

Well, needless to say, I called my friend and left her a message that even though I was supposed to feed the dogs 2X a day, I wasn't about to go over there again and maybe get bitten again, possibly worse than I was. She called me later that night and was fine with that and understood why I would also no longer watch her dog under any circumstances. She also said she now really needs to think long and hard about what is best for this dog...while I didn't ask to be bitten, I'd feel really bad if she decides that the best thing is to put the dog down. I hope she finds some one like Cesar Milan, aka the Dog Whisperer, to help with Sadie. ( Nov 20 2006, 09:31:15 AM PST ) Permalink
