  • This is what happens when you left your unleashed dog on the lawn!

    Hi everyone, long time lurker, here is a story for you.
    A few years ago I worked for a well known pizza chain as a delivery driver. One of the houses I went to was on a back dead end road with a long, steep, and rocky driveway. As I'm walking up this driveway with the large pizza, a medium sized dog already outside comes running towards me. This dog runs in between my legs and causes me to loose my footing.

    Yes you guess it. The very hot pizza goes flying out of the box and slams cheese/sauce first right into the dog fully covered from wet nose to tail. The dog starts yelping VERY loudly. SC opens up front door and freaks.

    Me- I'm very sorry sir (trying soooo hard not to laugh) I tripped and lost my footing. I can call pizza place and have another pizza delivered asap.
    SC- This is UNACCEPTABLE! LOOK AT MY DOG!!! I'm calling the cops on you for assault. And I'm going to sue pizza place! Now get off my property NOW!!!
    Me- *Mutters* I'll be more than happy to


    I leave and by the time I return to pizza place, the manager calls me into the office. Uh oh.
    The manager said the customer called and complained and said that I called the dog over and purposely dumped the pizza on it! WTF He also said he wants the next order free and compensation for inconvenience. He said that he would sue if his demands were not met and the manager hung up on him! He was officially banned after that. And he had to clean up all that sticky cheese off his dog. Was that really worth it trying to scam us for free food dumbass?
    After explaining the truth, we both had a good laugh and went on with our day.

      The real cruelty to that dog was the fact he had such a douche for an owner.

        Yeah, seriously.

        Although I am sorry the dog got hot pizza dumped on him, that couldn't have felt too good. But still...it was an ACCIDENT. Sheesh.

          You didn't throw the pizza on the pooch. It was an accident. Threatening to sue would not have gotten him anywhere.

            yah, the guy was a turdstain; poor dog, he was the only true victim in this mess.

            at least your boss didn't penalize you for the accident; it happens, and the dog should have been in the house or tied up, since the owner knew you'd be there.
            look! it's ghengis khan!
            Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

                At my old pizza place, having the dog unchained at all would be grounds for "I'm taking this order back to my car until you tie him up or put him inside"...but, by the time you knew about the dog, it was too late. Poor doggy (for having such an owner) -- and kudos to your manager for not backing down to an owner who put YOU intpotential danger as well as his dog!

                  Poor doggy. Even if you didn't spray the dog with pizza and it instead simply landed upended on the ground, the guy would accuse you of intentionally throwing pizza onto his driveway. Glad your manager didn't cave to his baseless accusations.

                          I don't know, most dogs I have known would count the burn a fair price for licking all that cheesy goodness off the fur .

                              Situations like that are why I always carried dog biscuits when I delivered pizza. I had a bag of mixed-size biscuits in the car and kept at least two in my pocket while I was on duty. The dogs that were nice to me got a treat for being nice. The dogs that wanted to tackle me got a treat thrown to the other side of the yard as a distraction.

                              It only failed once. The dog thought my ankle would be tastier than the treat.
