Accidents Happen

Discussion

Am I the only one in the world who is completely understanding when a dog accidentally slips it's collar or leash and runs up to my dog but nothing bad happens? These are freak accidents and it's not a reflection of the dog or the owner. Maybe I am more understanding because I have two reactive dogs of my own, one being an AmStaff, but I don't understand how people can be so judgy and mad, when almost every dog owner has been there. When your heart drops and you are hoping nothing bad happens as you try to gain control. This is not something people do on purpose or that happens to them all the time, accidents happen and I just know how embarrassed they are feeling. I love dogs, all dogs and I can't imagine taking it out on them either.
