What is the name of your state? Arizona
I hope this is the right forum for my question, I looked through the headings for the other forums and it sounded like this kind of fit this question best.
I take my two very playful yellow labs down to the local dog park pretty much every other night. Tonight a guy shows up and doesn't like the fact one of my labs was humping his male dog, so he smacks my dog. I'm not talking about a tap, but halfway between a bitchsmack and a hit.
I asked the guy just to pull mine off, or yell at the dog. His response pretty much said he is always going to do it. I even said I would in return hit his every time he hits mine, and he didn't even seem to care (this makes me feel that the guy is aggressive)! I wouldn't actually do that, but I can't believe he didn't even care...
Is this kind of thing illegal? One of my dogs pretty much always tries it, he isn't aggressive, but is just trying to play.
Could I do anything about this? Maybe have him banned from the local park? Should I show up at the park with a video camera and try to get him doing it on tape?
