Excellent write...and the road to recovery is harsh whith those painful rabies shots and all...best to hunt down and shoot the poor animal before it spreads its madness..... :)

Yup..Like the sick snake, and the scorpion alagories...

Mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday son, (Sorry; just thought I'd sing that old Noel Coward song) Any requests. Like over the hill and far far away?

You sure knocked over the middle stump, with this one..

Lori:

A good reflection of life. Some people ARE like this. There are worse scenarios. Worse is that the dog pretends to become your friend, and then stab at your back at any chance without a wink of an eye. Talks to you as if he's done nothing and still continues to be your friend. - This is worse. (I'm talking about both genders).

At least the dog in your scenario DID refuse your friendship.

Very interesting write here Lori...it takes a great and strong mind to reach this far.

"... I live by mine!!" Oh yes! This speaks volumes - of others but also of self. Of me it says "You judge yourself by your intentions (always good, of course!), and others by their actions!" The sad thing is how far apart these can both be in reality - or, at least, appear to be! A mirror for deep reflection here, as always, Lori. TY Kate xx
