So I'm walking home from school. And I see these two dogs coming up on my side of the street. They are both beautiful collies. Both on leashes. The owner looks kind of scared of me. (Guy in all black walking very determinedly with an ugly look on his face) So one lunges at me and starts growling and barking. It gets within 6" of me before the owner regains control. In that time I had my knife out and I was in defensive stance. (I guess practicing before the mirror pays off )
So once he restrains the attacking dog, he starts yelling at me for drawing a knife. I had of course put it away. So I express my dipleasure at him very vocally for letting the dog get so close. I could see he was spoiling for a fight, and I could definitely beat him, but the dog was an unknown element. So I just start walking backwards. (My house was about a half block away)
I have to swallow my pride and walk away. Very hard for a young man to do, as I'm sure some of you know/remember. Anyway, I know I should keep a friendlier demeanor, but I was in a bad mood and I guess it showed, now that I think about it. Otherwise than that, any tips?
