Hi,

I'm feeling a little bad about myself tonight. I picked up a dog from the lost animals home about 2 months ago. She's a whippet cross labrador (I think) - really nice family pet, would/could not harm a flea. Great with my 7 year old daughter and her friends etc. We (the kid and I) have been taking her to dog obedience classes every Sunday and she is coming along nicely.

This morning was like any other Sunday morning untill she was attacked in the park by a stafforshire bull terrier - you know the ones, they look sort of like a pit-bull. Anyhow, it was beginning to lock-jaw onto my dog. I yelled at the moron owner to tell his dog to back off and it then became pretty clear that he had no control over his dog.

About 50 other dogs in the area and maybe 70 odd owners where watching the spectacle in silence by now.

I took a flying run-up, kicked the bastard fair and square in the head (just happened to be wearing the size 10 docs). It went flying through the air, "master" in tow. We did'nt see him or his dog again for the rest of the session and now I feel sort of bad - like I over reacted. Things did become a bit of a blur but I found it hard not to go berzerk given I had my little kid there and am the protective type.

Anyone here ever attack a rabid dog?
