Deshalb muss sie leider an der Schleppleine bleiben, wenn ich (ausnahmsweise) mal mit ihr spatzierengehe. Malika hat mich gelehrt, dass ich kein Hundemensch bin. Ich bin einfach kein Rudelführer ;) - oder zumindest Malika meint, dass sie in der Rangordnung höher steht als ich. <br />Aber Gottseidank ist sie ne ganz liebe und würde keiner Fliege was zuleide tun. Nur, dass sie einer Gruppe, die auf der Wiese den Grill aufgestellt hatte, den Hühnerschlegel vom Tablett klaut, das war halt nicht eingeplant...<br />Das war mir zwar peinlich und ich hab mir Sorgen gemacht, ob der Hühnerknochen ihr schadet, aber die Leute habens mit Humor genommen und Malika den Knochen gut verdaut.<br /> <br />Schlimmer fand ich die Situation, als sie freudig bellend und schwanzwedelnd abgedüst ist, um zwei Pferde mit Reitern zu "begrüßen". Puh, was da hätte passieren können. Von da an durfte sie bei mir nie mehr ohne Leine gehen und ich reiß mich auch nicht drum, mit ihr Gassi zu gehen. Weil, an der Leine macht das überhaupt keinen Spaß wenn man weiß, wie der Hund sich freut über die Äcker zu sausen.<br /><br />Ich bleib lieber bei meinen Katzen.... <br /><br />Hund vielleicht in der Rente irgendwann mal. Ob man es bei einem eigenen Hund besser hinbekommen würde, dass er zuverlässig folgt als bei einem geliehenen? Weil, bei ihren Besitzern gehorcht sie und macht keine solchen Ausreißer.<br /><br />Grüßle, die Bea<br /><br />P.S.: Fast vergessen: Die Handschuhe sind sehr schön.Beahttp://nadelundfaden.beate-zaech.denoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25604704.post-20215366741655173222010-01-27T00:40:30.654-05:002010-01-27T00:40:30.654-05:00I don't even bother going to our dog park.

It's remarkable.<br /><br />There's a dog park across the street from my job and one big dog kept running over and tripping, then stepping on a smaller dog. The owners weren't even watching and the little dog was whimpering.<br /><br />I felt like going over there and smacking the owners in the head. I had to leave the park because all that activity was stressing me out.<br /><br />Some people just have no common sense!<br /><br />Lovely mittens, by the way.

My neighbour, who has a beautiful little huskie mix, couldn't understand why I got so upset that she let her dog have such a long lead outside (long enough that it could almost reach the far side of my lawn). We also share a walkway, so every time I brought groceries home I got jumped on, and the dog used my lawn as a toilet. I love dogs, but this was a little much. I had our landlord put up a fence down the centre of the walkway between our properties and now my neighbour won't speak to me... not really a big loss, but I feel sorry for the dog having such an owner.<br /><br />Happy and Biko look like they were enjoying the snow!Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25604704.post-6579958097739587342010-01-26T21:51:34.144-05:002010-01-26T21:51:34.144-05:00I wish I had dogs now.

Plus, we're not home all that much, and it just wouldn't be fair.<br /><br />And I completely understand about people not getting doggie behavior. I once rescued a puppy from a woman who was upset that he kept biting. We brought the dog home, and he would hold our hands in his mouth and whimper. That was what she considered biting? He was OBVIOUSLY in pain. So we took the poor guy off to the vet and discovered that he had horrendous hip displaysia. $15,000 in surgery later (thank you, mom and dad), he did fine, and lived to be 15 years old. And was a TOTAL sweetheart all 15 years too. ARGH. Drives me nuts.
