You can’t believe what my rotten dog did to me Sunday.
It was pouring rain and we were walking. We got to Bill & Betty’s driveway and their garage door was opening. B & B have a miniature schnauzer named Bear – he’s about 5 or 6 pounds and thinks he’s just as big a boy as my 100+ pound Max – and he loves us (Max and me). He minds really well (yeah, right) – until we walk by – then he heads for us at top speed and nothing can stop him.
The problem is that we are all concerned about the difference in size – the dogs get along fine – but Max could hurt Bear without trying. So, I usually pick him up as soon as he gets to me and release Max’s leash so he’ll run to B & B.
Sunday I was juggling Max's leash and an umbrella so I just knelt on the ground and Bear huddled under my rain cape while I petted him. Max was wandering around and he walked up to me, hiked his leg – and PEED all over the front of me!!! I couldn’t believe he was doing that for a few seconds – so he had a chance to really wet me down before I told him to GO AWAY.
B & B were getting ready to go to town so they got in the car and drove down to where I was waiting for them - their driveway is about 2 city blocks long.
I shook the yellow waterfall from my cape and handed Bear to Betty - then told them what my rotten dog had just done. Of course, they thought this was just too funny. (it is)
They decided that he was:
Trying to mark me as his territory so Bear wouldn’t feel free to hide under my rain cape.
Mad cause I was petting another dog and was saying "Well, piss on you."
I said that I probably didn’t want to know what he was thinking - whatever it was had to be something it was better for me not to know.
I can’t believe my dog peed all over me.
Maybe he’s still upset about the porcupine quills?
