Judge Dread
There is a man in Florida who has recently made the news because he is being a "bone-head" and not walking his dog on a leash. Some people think their dogs are special and don't need to be leashed like the rest of us. Snickers was a dog that would go ballistic when he met unleashed dogs on the trail. Snickers wanted to fight with the dog because he thought the dog was going to hurt me. A few times Linda had to sit on him and pin Snickers between her knees because a big dog ran up to us on the trail. She held me high above her head so I would not get chomped. We would have gotten sued because Snickers maimed their dog, when the dog was breaking the law by running free. He would have just been protecting me. Anyway, this loser in Tampa was fined $1,000 for not leashing his dog (after years of being told to leash him) and would not pay the fines. Now he owes so much money (over $100,000 with legal fees and interest) that he might lose his home. A bunch of supporters are saying that the guy is a hero and to leave him alone. If Snickers was still alive and we met him on the trail, he wouldn't be walking his dog without a leash because the dog would be no more.
