I kicked a decrepit german shepard to death.

WHY?!Wasn't my fault really, the owner had trained his dog to be aggressive and I was deathly afraid of dogs. The animal escaped the leash and charged me, I don't know if it would have bitten me, but I instinctively kicked it in the face... I'm an extremely overweight guy and was scared shitless, that's propably why my leg had some serious power behind it, so I kicked that poor puppies snout straight into its braincase.

Still have nightmares of that day. Good news is: I have sinced learned to be less afraid and love dogs now. I even regularly put my hand down the throat of a huge japanese Akita Inu who loves me to death and pull on his teeth in play.

Theres a lot of shitty dog owners out there. Also, glad you’re able to work through the phobia.

Good on you, it's the owners fault. I really hate most dog owners, they just let their dogs off the leash and let them come up to you, not giving a shit whether the person is afraid of dogs or not or basically taking the risk for someone else.

Since having a daughter every time I'm out and there's dogs I hate having to imagine how I'd save her from an attack and how I'd either have to try killing it or escaping.

They have the audacity to say "don't worry they won't harm her" when I pick my daughter up to stop them getting near. "No fuck you and leash your dog"

The "Why?" is a spoiler, i didn't realize it at first too, just was bold text in voyager.

And you are right, ir also could have been a decrepit german with the name shepard lol

[–] feddup@feddit.uk 4 points 8 months ago

Or a shepherd that's an elderly German man I guess lol

You have an unconditional right to self defense against a dog.
