Picture it! A small desert town, mid-August 2009...
Grandmother and I generally do our shopping at 10 AM every few days. Well, about a week ago, it was reaching at least 105 outside by then. We get our shopping down and come out. A woman we know by face came out with us.
We get to our cars and she gets to hers. Well, a white Subaru car was one: over the white line, giving her barely enough room to get in and two: filled with FOUR pits. Big pits.
I get everything loaded and notice loud "BARK BARK WOOF GROWL". Straightening up, I see the woman on the FAR side of the truck's bed. She has three handfuls of bones and is throwing them at these dogs. Who, by chance, RIPPED THROUGH the chicken wire on his rolled down windows ( )and were lunging halfway out, trying to get her.
A man came out, told her he'd be back he'll page the owner. OK all is good. We start driving toward the parking lot exit (having to go by the car with the dogs). The man left the BACK DOOR OPEN and one dog jumped out. Immediately, I am unbuckling just in case. He started going toward a woman (halfway out the door now) and he stops and runs back into the car.
As the owner for the car showed up, I was parked near the woman, taking car info. down and was on the phone with the cops.
He even gave me a big grin when he was driving off and I got a facial description of him. Thank you mister! Hope they found your car and you're at least paying a fine!
Scared me half to death though. Figured I'd share the idiocy from that day.
