My pet peeve (excuse the pun) is the dog owner who, as the unleashed dog is viciously barking, snarling and nipping hysterically at you, usually mere centimeters from your ‘private area’, will calmly say: “Oh he won’t bite.” Or “Don’t worry. He’s never bitten anyone before.” There’s a first time for everything and I don’t want to be some dog’s first time for anything.
As for Tim’s and my encounter with the dogs on our run, I would have never believed what happened unless I was there to witness it. Without breaking stride and without raising his voice, Tim began to tap the metal pipes together as we crossed in front of the driveway. The instant, the dogs heard the noise coming from the banging pipes, they stopped barking, came to a screeching halt at the base of their driveway, and simply stood there and watched us as we ran by.

Dog fighting is a very cruel thing, and it is happening right under our noses. It is illegal to fight a dog in all fifty states. By being an observer at a dog fight, it is against the law in forty-seven states. So why do people continue this cruel practice? The answer seems to be money. Some people who breed dogs for fighting can sell their puppies for up to two thousand dollars.
