At the moment I hand walk my horses down the road since neither are rideable and I'm in no shape yet to ride myself! I have walked this road for a year and never had any major problems. Most everyone knows me and some even ask to pet the boys. Both of my boys are fine with dogs there is three small dogs that always yap and bark at us and follow us a good ways. This does not even faze either of them though it does annoy me. The problem recently is that one of people have gotton two Pitt bulls and let them run loose when not inside. I have no problem with the breed and even have a Pitt but these dogs are extremely aggressive! The charge at me and the horse. They try to bite their legs and have even attempted to Bite at me! The owner has watched all this happen and done nothing but scream at the animals! One of the people in the house called me an idiot for walking a horse down the road but its a public road so I have much right to walk down it as them! I called the police department and they basically said until they actually cause harm they won't do anything!! I can't walk anore for fear of these dogs seriously hurting me or my horses. I just don't understand why people let dogs like this run loose! its people like this that give the Pitt breed a bad name. I just had to rant a little as I'm just really frustrated cause the boys loved walking that road and all the neighborhood kids loved seeing and petting them. Has anyone else ever delt with something like this?
