My daughter and I witnessed a very odd thing yesterday. As we were walking through a busy city street where there are lots of restaurants and stores, we heard this very loud clanking noise.
It sounded like the bottom of someone's vehicle had fallen out and was dragging a lot of heavy pieces of metal. Everyone on our side of the street was looking around. There was a lot of traffic and now cars were slowing down too.
Suddenly the noise was directly across the street and getting louder so as I turned I saw a dog running down the street dragging two chairs closely behind him. He looked completely terrified.
As I began to cross to help, a quick acting couple who was walking in the direction of the dog grabbed him as his owner quickly approached from the other direction.
It was quite unusual and scary. The dog was about to dart into the street. He was clearly running for his life or so he thought.
Apparently the guy had tied the small - medium sized dog to a chair out front and gone in to pick up his carry out order. The dog moved somehow causing the chair to startle him. The dog got tied up to both chairs as he tried to get away from the chairs. He was strong enough to proceed down the street with both chairs. Who would have thought?
This could have been fatal and definitely was an awful experience for the dog.
So...if you must tie your dog up to wait a moment for you please use a secured structure...oops..poor guy too!
