One of my pet peeves happened today, dog owner walks along the single track road and made no effort to shorten his dogs lead, I stopped with Jess as far over as I could get her and as he goes by with the dog probably 18" from Jess' legs says "don't worry my dog is fine with horses", he scuttled off quickly when I replied "my horse isn't good with dogs though". It's not Jess' fault, she's been attacked multiple times, so she sometimes goes on the offensive before they get a chance but people never think about that possibility.
