Mother Enraged After Dog Owner Yelled At Her Kids For Petting Their Dog

It's safe to say that most people love dogs, but there's something special about the love that kids show for dogs, and seeing kids playing with a dog is a beautiful sight. Dogs are such adorable and cuddly creatures, so it's understandable that kids, and adults alike, go crazy whenever they see a dog because who wouldn't?

However, it's important to remember that while it's mostly safe to play with dogs that know you, doing the same with a stranger's dog can be dangerous because you never know how that dog will react. The safest thing you can do is ask the owner first if his dog can be played with because not all dogs are the same.

Some dogs are more aggressive, especially if the owner owns them for protection or they're not trained well enough, and others could be scared, and they might hurt you in self-defense. Either way, if the dog doesn't know you, then it's best to talk to the owner first about playing with their dog.

This Reddit user had an incident recently when a couple of kids approached them while they were walking their dog through the neighborhood. OP explains that they've been walking their dog around the neighborhood for 3 years and that pretty much everyone knows them.

The dog gets spooked easily and is anxious when going outside because he's had a few close calls with delivery bikes using the pathways between houses. Usually, the kids are understanding of the situation, and they tread carefully when approaching OP's dog, who gets jumpy around people.

One day, while walking their dog, 2 kids on bicycles barreled at OP's dog and started petting him without asking first, so OP yelled at them to stop because they should know better. The mother of the kids approaches OP and slams them for yelling at her kids, and leaves with her kids after an argument with OP.

OP felt bad about what they did, so they shared this story on Reddit in an attempt to get some unbiased opinions on the matter. Make sure you scroll down and read the full story, along with the comments left by the wise people of Reddit.
