Funny dog encounters
I was on a short ride saturday after doing a gear change on my single speed, just to check my work, when I passed a couple walking on the sidewalk. The couple had a dog on a leash. As I passed by the dog went absolutly bat S*** crazy. Barking, snarling, growling, pulling, jumping, and twirling around, all at the same time. Yes, it was quite the site seeing this 4 pound dog going nuts trying to get at me. I laughed for about a half mile.
Then there was the time I was riding almost in the gutter, and a guy was walking his two little dogs, on the sidewalk, on leashes. The bike I was on is bassically silent when I coast, and both dogs, and the guy where looking the opposite way, and didn't see me comming. One of the little creaters was sniffing at the curb as I rolled passed, I didn't see, hear or, smell me comming. I passed with in 18 inches of the mutt, and startled is so bad I jumped about three feet in the air! Of course it couldn't let that stand, and started to bark, and try to get at me, as I rolled away.
Funny but not so funny was when I saw a great dane slowly unfold itself before it chased me....
So since sometime we get the upper hand, what's your funny or unusual dog story?
