Blocking anyone who speaks negatively about my dogs. Only I'm allowed to refer to them as "a problem" (which I will do several times a day).
Those are my SONS.
Anyways, introducing my newest problem to BlueSky: Oscar. He believes he should be allowed to climb on anything and loves to eat mulch.

Update: after another interaction tonight it seems that my dog is reacting not to the other dog, but to the jolly ball that dog carries, because he is weirdly fearful of certain objects.

I mentioned the dog's breed only because I needed a descriptor to differentiate that my dog has absurdly tried to pick a fight with a dog 5 times his size who belongs to a cop. It isn't an indictment of the breed, it was just illustrating a story.

I Immediately turned him around and walked the other way to let them go inside.

Sometimes dogs have problems with each other, I guess. It's just our responsibility as owners to ensure that that problem doesn't get anybody hurt.

The German Shepherd previously lunged at my dog and has gone for several other dogs.
There are many good German Shepherds. It isn't the breed, it is the personality of individual dogs. But sometimes dogs don't like each other. I will be keeping my distance from this dog so there aren't issues.

I'm actually stressing out pretty hard about this because the way we have to wait for elevators means that my dogs or this dog could be coming out of the elevator or around the corner and run into each other.

My dog loves dogs. LOVES dogs. Has never had a problem with a dog. Except, now, for one.
He has decided that he hates the German Shepherd who lives with the cop down the hall (might be a police canine).

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

ICE agents raid South Shore apartments; Trump says Chicago could become military training ground
ICE agents raided a South Shore apartment building overnight as the city braces for a possible military deployment.
βThey had a big, 15-inch chainsaw with round blade on it, cutting this fence down. We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."
The worst of what we feared when Trumpβs spending bill gave ICE a blank check is happening.
