So you tactically crapped your pants?

Waiting for the other thread from the dog:  "I just made a college student soil himself..."

As a retired former K9 officer, please let me say NEVER RUN FROM A DOG, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!!


Stand your ground and put ANYTHING you can find between you and the dog, even if all you can find is a tree, use your belt and swing it buckle-end at the dog, trash can lids are great shields, open umbrellas confuse the hell out of them, chairs (think lion tamer) sticks, anything between you and the dog. SCREAM at the dog in your most commanding voice, as a last resort wind your jacket up around your weak hand and forearm and let the dog hit it, then slash from underneath the dog's throat with your pocketknife and kill the bastard. If you don't have a knife, use your jacket wrapped forearm and let the dog bite, then pin the dog's neck from the top with your strong forearm and fall directly on top of the dog with all your weight snapping the dogs's neck. You'd be surprised how easily even an "Attack Trained" police dog can be killed by a human bare handed if the human knows what they are doing.

Most stray dogs are not malicious, they're just looking for some excitement and ANYTHING THAT RUNS FROM THEM IS PURE EXCITEMENT TO A DOG!!! Even if the dog was not intent on harming you at first, the "thrill" of the run will leave him with one thing on his mind once he runs you down AND HE WILL. DO NOT RUN FROM A DOG (can't say that enough).

Do you really like pussy?





10% pepper spray would have saved you the running and then you would have had something to report on.

Quoted: Didn't anyone tell you not to run with knives?  By the way, dogs instinctively chase things that are running from them. I liked your story though.

Actually that is the 'Scissors Rule'.  Scissors possess a heightened disproportionate lethality in relation to their actual intended use when this rule is ignored by the casual runner/ carrier (who is almost always the one to suffer). As a regular poster/ member of arfcom (lethality factor +10) this rule is nullified by  Chuck Norris Principle which would have made him a lethal killing machine to any and all life forms within 25 meters in any given direction along his path of travel. It was an act of mercy/ compassion toward his fellow man/ domesticated animal that he chose not to run with sharp objects. Good man!

I'm so disappointed with this thread. I was hoping this was gonna be about some guy (or girl) takin' a lonely nighttime walk thru a golf course and, accidently, catching a couple of people having after-hours sex in a sandtrap on a par 4. I was really banking on reading a good voyeur story.



Eleven(Right when they come yell out "FOUR" really really loud!!)O

Too funny.

Quoted: Quoted: you out-ran a dog for a 1/4 mile? That's why I don't think the dog would have attacked. Either it's old and out of shape, or it didn't want to catch him.

Probably a goose dog, trained to chase but not catch.  It's how you legally keep geese off of your greens and away from your ponds.
He could have caught you, but his job is to chase anything alive off of the course.  You could have just jogged and he would have been happy.

Check with the groundskeeper; it may be OK to go back.  He could introduce you, and you'll be accepted.

Quoted: ive never heard a dog make that noise before   "BAWAWAWAWAWAW"

Yeah no shit.  Sounds like porno music.  Maybe it was Ron Jeremy's dog.

Pale Pony is right.  Never run from a dog.  I am not a K-9 cop, but have been in many fights with a dog in my life because of jobs I have had or where I have lived.  Keep your cool and something between them and you.  If your hand gets in their mouth then just try to grab their ass hole from the inside.  They don’t like that.  Yes you will get bitten, but it is really not that big of a deal unless they are rabid.  Believe it or not, Basset Hounds and such with really lose skin and powerful jaws are the worst.  When you try to grab them the skin stretches past your reach and you find yourself in deep shit real quick.   Best yet is to go to a contractor or surveyor’s supply house and buy some HALT dog repelent.  That stuff works like a champ.  I carry it with me when I walk my dogs or am out walking at night.

You're effin' stupid.

Since you were at the golf course you should have worked on you're "slice"

Quoted: Most likely if you had stood your ground it wouldn't have attacked you. But what balls would it take to stand there while a big ass dog is running at you!!!!!

Been there, done that.  Two dogs (rotty and pitbull) in my case though, both circling me as I was jogging.  One would come close, I'd lunge at it, it'd back off as the other one moved in.  This went on for what seemed like an eternity, until an "owner" came out of his backyard hearing me yelling, saw me with the knife and called the police.  Didn't call off the dog....CALLED THE FUCKING POLICE.

I had the police call animal control and take the dogs.

Police told me I did a good job staying alive.  Owner was fined, cost him more money in legal fees and to this day, when I see him when I jog, he gives me this queer look as if I had intruded on his dogs territory!  Some people are morons.

Yeah, I remember hearing that its best to stand your ground. But in by milisecond of thought I figured this wasnt the place to test the theory. The let him take my weak arm while I stabed him was plan B

Quoted: So you tactically crapped your pants?

Yes

I believe the stench is what finally made him back off.

you ran and the dog thought that you wanted to play hay hay bwaaaahhh-hah-ah-ah-ah ....  where do dogs go when they lose their tail? ....to a retail store.

haha. thanks for the laugh.  That dog helped give you more material to reflect  on?  haha

I thought this story was going to end with ".. so thats how i got arrested by the camus police for trespassing."
