Beach Brawl: Pup Parent vs. Dad
Our protagonist was enjoying a peaceful walk with her Jack Russell along the ocean-side coast when she encountered a dad and his two kids. The kids were walking on the other side of the safety fence and ended up on the same small sandy beach as our dog owner. Knowing that Jack Russells can be aggressive with children and having had a previous bad experience, she decided to scoop up her dog and leave. But the dad wasn’t having it! He confronted her, asking why she was taking her dog away when his kids were playing with him. She explained her concerns, but the dad insisted everything was fine and that her fear would cause something to happen. He continued to yell as she walked away. So, who’s in the right here? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
