flying dog?
A couple of weeks ago I was heading back to work after lunch and noticed a friend of mine walking down the street with his young corgi, Briar, who I just love.
So I waved, and we stood at the end of my driveway for a few minutes talking and playing with the puppy.
Before long I heard a car driving by from behind me, and all the sudden a dog came flying through the air at about my shoulder height, flew right past me and slammed into my friend.
The dog had jumped out the back window of the passing car!
The dog bounced off my friend and landed on the ground and came right back, going after the corgi. It was a decent sized dog... probably a BC pit bull mix. Colored like Bender, but with a short coat and that tell tale head and neck of a pit mix.
My friend was trying to protect his puppy, and I was trying to keep the flying dog from getting at Briar.
Just when I was sure I was going to get bit, the guy from the car yelled the dogs name, and the dog turned on a dime and ran back to the car.
Luckily, everyone was ok. The driver was very apologetic and concerned.
In hindsight I think the flying dog might have wanted to play with Briar as he didn't seem as vicious as he should have. He wanted to get to Briar, but didn't ack like he wanted to kill her. I live with Skeeter.... I've seen a vicious dog and what they look like when they want to kill another dog. This dog did not look like that.
It was a very odd thing. Sure makes me glad my dogs are contained in the car.
