I have a pet peeve with dog owners who are inconsiderate of others. I understand you love your dog very much. I am glad you love your dog very much. I on the other hand do not love you dog at all. I probably don't even like your dog. He is not in my pack and is therefore my rival. :) Back to my point. Why do some dog owners think allowing their dog to bother other people is okay? Some specifics. Dogs shitting on my lawn. Allowing dogs to bark for hours on end. (Oh, I am used to it. That bothers you?) Dogs being allowed to jump on me and or like me. Tying dogs in front of business establishments while you run in to get something forcing every person entering the business to attempt to navigate their way in around your curious dog. I am unimpressed with their attempts at friendliness. I do not walk up to strangers and sniff their crotch or hug them and French kiss them. I am much more understanding of dogs at a persons house. That is where they live and if jumping is okay there I don't mind. I will hug random friends of friends and family members I have just met in the same situation so I will accept the same from a dog. Why do strangers think I should assume their dog is friendly? Maybe you will judge me as a horrible person, you know those people who don't love every dog, but I think your pet needs to be kept under control and should not bother people, impeding their enjoyment of life.

I'm not a dog fan and now that I have little ones I'm really not a dog fan. They know rules when we go hiking that they can say hi to the dogs but can't go up to them. If they have someone tell them it's ok then they can. I get so nervous when people bring their dogs up to my kids without saying anything.

Cat owners are WAY more considerate than dog owners. But, I must say, a well behaved dog can be a joy to be around. Unfortunately, there seems to be less and less well behaved dogs around!
