Re: [pyrnet] chat:Pet Fair~~an unusal happening

Just to show ya'll that dogs are color blind and it's not color but size and/or body language.... Both of my pyr's love the dog next door which is a huge mutant German shepherd.  However the both completely flip out when the dog on the other side of us is outside.  This fearsome dog is a bischon (sp?) that weighs all of 8 or 9 pounds!!  Such a fearsome dog!  Actually I have to be careful walking them because there is another house down the street that has toy poodles and another couple of toy breeds.  My dogs just seem to hate the toy (any toy) breeds.  

Oh and also squirrels that tease them... I've actually seen the squirrels throw things at the dogs from the top of the fence and I swear they are laughing at the dogs!!!  Can't say that I blame them.  It's pretty funny to see these 2 huge dogs acting like we're being invaded by squirrels.  I laugh too!

Oh Pleeeze! Let's not let this get out of hand! It was one owner relating
her experience with her own dogs as well as others that she has had contact
with in the past. My Chel DESPISES the Pit Bull down the street. She goes
absolutely Ballistic when he walks by. He's a sweet, loveable dog. But she
reacts to his VERY dominant body language. And this Pit is all white. Dogs
read body language and do it much better than we do. They also may react due
to past experience with a given dog or breed.
