I was at training with Fozzy last night. There is a couple that has pissed me off since day one. They have this adorable border collie that is an absolute head case. She goes after other dogs, nips at the owners barks like crazy. From the first class it was clear that the owners are abusive with this dog. I have seen both owners swat this dog, scream at this dog and just treat this dog badly. The trainer is visibly struggling with this couple, biting her tongue and show them the proper way to train this poor girl. Well, last night the husband was dragging this dog around and it was crying very loudly, the man did something, the dog yelped then the man screamed at the dog, getting in its face. The instructor from day one has talked to these people that the dog is anxious and should be dealt with in a calm manner. So when she again reminded him that correction is good but anger just causes her more anxiety I thought the man was going to snap! He started yelling/mumbling and drug the dog out of class.
I was so angry I wanted to snatch that leash right out of his hand and call the human society! I can only imagine what goes on with that poor girl at home.
So on the way home my son asked me if we could call the police on that couple. I told him we don't know the whole story and if we did then we could make an informed decision. I told him if the trainer thought that it was necessary, I am sure the trainer would make the call. But after I said it to him, I thought.......but what if she doesn't? What do you think?
