Punting material

I was in a patient's apartment earlier today when my pants leg was assaulted by a yappy dog. You know, one of those small breeds that act like they're on crack, pawing at any part of visitors with which they come into contact. The patient and his wife kept trying to order the dog off me, throwing in the occasional "some people don't like dogs", supposedly directed to the dog in question. I felt like adding "dogs that can't stay the hell away from my person and my equipment, that is". WTF, yo.

It's the owners fault for letting the dog get away with that behavior. Too many people let little dogs to whatever they want just because they are small. But they have the ability to learn obedience just like any other dog. Little dogs don't have to be annoying...but most of the time they are b/c their owners treat them like their "little babies". lame.

Seriously. Just because they're pocket size doesn't mean they're incapable of being trained. A small dog jumping over anyone is just as annoying as a big dog doing it.
