I hadn’t met a mean pit bull, until today. On my way home tonight, after a long, stressful day at work and extra traffic during the drive, I witnessed something I never thought I would see. While driving through the Indian Reservation, a I saw a dog run toward the car in front of me and turn back toward his house. I figured he was trying to cross the street, so I slowed down. The blue-colored pit approached my car, and stared me down. I stopped to let him cross, but he continued standing and staring, a mean glare, meant for a mortal enemy. Since he wasn’t crossing the street, I gently pressed the gas pedal and lifted my left foot off the clutch. That’s when the pit attacked my car! He went for the front, driver’s side tire, under the front bumper, so I stopped. I tried again only to be attacked again. Not wanting to hurt the dog, I honked my horn. He just glared at me through the window. Any time I was stopped, he glared. He attacked the car every time I tried to drive. Eventually, I heard the dog’s owner yell a name, and the dog turned and went toward the house. I took off, not quite understanding why the thought of getting a video of the event with my iPhone had eluded me, all the while laughing hysterically. If that dog is so protective of his house that he attacks cars driving by, his owners have a real problem on their hands. Yet I can’t stop laughing at the sight of a 90-pound dog attacking a gray Ford Focus S2. Please note, that I’ve met a lot of pits in my life, and this is the only mean one in the bunch. Spay and neuter folks! It makes a difference!
