What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?
The owner kind of makes a weak attempt to seem like they’re trying, but if I weren’t there, they wouldn’t intervene at all. I’m asking because I want to make sure that I don’t over react next time.
Either that or talk to other owners at the park about collectively shunning the problematic owner. It sounds harsh but I’ve seen this work and it’s preferable to giving up a beloved community hangout just because of one asshole.
I’m assuming OP has already asked the problem owner to stop and they are refusing to control their dog properly. Obviously talking to them comes first.
Sure, in which case I guess it’s just annoying? My dog will usually bark or snap at dogs that try to mount her, if you are at the dog park that behavior will happen regardless, spayed female dogs hump as well as males who are both neutered and not 🤷♀️
Would feel pretty horrifying if it were humans in the dog’s place. I’d either tell the owner to get their dog to knock it off or find a new park with better trained dogs (and owners). :P
