00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,119
Oh my god, you're right.
Who was our first episode? I

6
00:00:35,119 --> 00:00:38,159
want to say it came out in
July. During July or August we recorded

7
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,039
in like before sure, yeah,
oh my god. That's a really good

8
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:46,520
point. If it's like a one
year birthday right now, July fourteenth is

9
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,920
our birthday or not? Yeah?
What the fuck? Yeah? Oh my

10
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,880

happy your birthday bonus. Hey,

32
00:02:17,199 --> 00:02:20,879
One of the questions is Nick,
why are you here? Which I cannot

33
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,039
wait to hear the answer to now
are we talking about the philosophical why am

34
00:02:24,039 --> 00:02:25,960
I? Here? Are we talking
about the why am I? On this

35
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:30,439
podcast? Because they are, I
think we'll have time for both different answers.

36
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,039
I'm just gonna go on. Yeah, it's it's gonna be the me

37
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,120
episode where I just do whatever my
brain tells me to do and it's gonna

38
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,360
be a mess. So that's kind
of what this episode is, so I'll

39
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,199
be honest. It's been rough,
just like existing. Yeah, we don't

40
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:51,919
count ourselves as a political podcast.
We don't talk about politics much or at

41
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,199
all, as little as we can
because, like you, guys come here

42
00:02:54,199 --> 00:02:58,000
for animal attack stuff and that's what
we try to stick to. If you

43
00:02:58,039 --> 00:03:00,719
want to get into politics, you
can go elsewhere. That being said,

44
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:06,439
with the overturning of Roe v Wade, I have been depressed, so I

45
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,000
have not put a whole lot of
thought into what animal to research next because

46
00:03:10,039 --> 00:03:14,240
I've been too focused on being upset. It's not like you've had anything else

47
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:19,199
major happened to you recently that might
help with not needing to research another animal

48
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,000
or anything, and we can talk
about on this podcast. Right. Yes,

49
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,240
I have a person she was attacked
by dogs Okay, Yeah, so

50
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,280
that's we're gonna name this episode Ashley's
Cautionary Tale and talk about what happened to

51
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:38,400
me and like things that I have
taken from our podcast or might not have

52
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:42,520
taken and could have learned more from, and how what happened to me can

53
00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:47,280
help you hopefully. Did you get
out alive? Yes, we both did,

54
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,360
Thank you very much, obviously,
or else how would we be doing

55
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,960
this. Apple has a lot of
cool technology. We can talk to the

56
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,400
dead. That's true and horrifying,
So let's skip right over that. So,

57
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:01,719
yeah, what we're talking about today
is an incident that happened with me,

58
00:04:01,759 --> 00:04:05,120
and if you follow me on any
social media or know me, you've

59
00:04:05,159 --> 00:04:09,360
heard a little bit about it.
I texted Nick pretty much immediately as I

60
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,879
got home from it happened, just
like I love when bad things happen to

61
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:16,399
me, and I text you the
veguest things and like really short text messages,

62
00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:20,279
but like multiple short text messages that
are very vague, and my responses

63
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,560
you're the same of Okay, like
who do I need to go kill?

64
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000
But should we get into it?
I've worried you, so let's go.

65
00:04:27,519 --> 00:04:30,240
I don't know how long this episode's
gonna be I'm sorry to be so all

66
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,160
over the place. I've just been
mad, and also focusing on like how

67
00:04:34,199 --> 00:04:42,399
to use angry energy towards making good. So we're gonna take my angry energy

68
00:04:42,439 --> 00:04:45,160
from what happened to me and try
to make it into something useful here.

69
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,240
Hell yeah, So I guess to
preface, I have I have a lot

70
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,279
of experience with dogs, would you
agree? Yes? Yeah. Like my

71
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,480
first dog that I lived with and
trained and owned was a purebred black German

72
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,399
shepherd who was pretty dog aggressive,
meaning he would attack other dogs, so

73
00:05:01,439 --> 00:05:05,279
that's aggressive. He also came after
me one time, okay, came after

74
00:05:05,319 --> 00:05:09,120
you. Was he would bark at
people and run at them coming into our

75
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,160
house, but he'd just bark at
you. He was a big baby.

76
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,000
And then I barked at him and
ran at him in and he was like

77
00:05:14,079 --> 00:05:17,000
respect. So definitely definitely the way
to do it. Yeah, yeah,

78
00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:19,800
ten out of ten recommendation. No, it's so dumb, don't do that.

79
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,120
Don't do that people. I was
a young child, and I was

80
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:26,560
dumb. Well that being said,
I was like, gosh, I was

81
00:05:26,639 --> 00:05:30,319
little when we got Cosmo, that
shepherd, and I used to walk him

82
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,399
by myself because Nick and I lived
in a city or a New Hampshire equivalent

83
00:05:34,439 --> 00:05:39,160
of a city, the second largest
city in New Hampshire, so it was

84
00:05:39,199 --> 00:05:43,519
like a big, decently sized town
yeah for like other states. But no

85
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,240
one ever approached me when I was
walking him because he looked so scary and

86
00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:51,759
was so like anti people that weren't
his people. Now he was full on

87
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,600
police dog, like he's scary ass
Mo. Yeah, I mean when police

88
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,199
came to our house, they were
like, please put that dog somewhere.

89
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,600
Yeah, he was God, he
was something. So I wasn't the best

90
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,360
dog owner back then because I was
a child and didn't know things. But

91
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,600
I had a few cases with him
where dogs came at us. So,

92
00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:16,360
like I lived in a neighborhood that
was a loop, and I like to

93
00:06:16,399 --> 00:06:21,279
think there's a difference between a showy
aggressive dog and like a dog that actually

94
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:25,519
wants to kill your dog. Because
Cosmo was very like boo boo boo,

95
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,879
like putting on a show, was
a jerk, but like never would try

96
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,160
to kill another dog. But we
had one instance where we were walking on

97
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,399
like the other side of our street
and someone had a loose dog in their

98
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:41,560
yard. And I saw the dog
see us, and then it quietly ran

99
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:46,519
behind a truck to like surprise us
and was silent and then came at us.

100
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,079
He didn't even notice he was looking
in the opposite direction. I just

101
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,439
screamed at it, and then it
turned around, thank god, because it

102
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,839
would have been a bloodbath. We
had one other instance where these people were

103
00:06:55,879 --> 00:06:59,759
sitting in their yard with a Jack
Russell that was off leash, and it

104
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,800
came running at us, barking,
and Cosmo just lifted a paw and smacked

105
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:11,279
it, like literally slapped it,
and then it yeah, and then it

106
00:07:11,319 --> 00:07:14,040
whined and ran away, like down
the street, away from its owners.

107
00:07:14,079 --> 00:07:16,519
So I'm just like, oh my
god, eh, and Cosmo like normally

108
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,399
he would have lost his mind,
but he just looked at it and I

109
00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:23,240
kept walking like I can't even be
bothered. Yeah, definitely not. It

110
00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:27,199
was hilarious. So anyways, there
was that, and then in college for

111
00:07:27,279 --> 00:07:31,839
like two years, I worked with
a team of Siberian huskies that were slood

112
00:07:31,839 --> 00:07:36,240
dogs. There were so many times
where they legitimately tried to kill each other,

113
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,399
and all of these instances that I'm
sharing, I've never been like afraid

114
00:07:40,399 --> 00:07:43,199
of dogs, I've never had an
instance where I was like I'm in danger,

115
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,120
and even the worst fight I ever
had with those huskies, which I'll

116
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,079
briefly share because why not. We're
in a dog episode. The owner of

117
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,920
the sled dog kennel was away and
I was watching the dogs, and they

118
00:07:51,959 --> 00:07:57,720
live outside because they're Siberian Husky flood
dogs and they prefer that. And honestly,

119
00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:00,720
you don't want twenty one huskies in
your house. It's a lot of

120
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:03,879
fur. So we'd have different playgroups, so you can't have all of them

121
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:07,319
o at the same time because that's
just asking for a disaster. So I

122
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,759
think it was in a season where
the females were in heat, so I

123
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,160
had just the boys out, and
then i'd have just the females out.

124
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,000
So I had all the boys out, and there was this one dog named

125
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,519
Junior who was like my favorite.
I loved him very much, and a

126
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,639
lot of them were related, so
like Junior's whole litter basically lived there,

127
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:28,920
and Junior's dad, Sonny, was
there. Junior was like, quote unquote

128
00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:31,080
the alpha male, like they all
respected him and he like didn't put up

129
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,759
with any crap. So on this
day, I let all of them out.

130
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:41,440
Junior's brother Elvis decided on this day, I'm done listening to him and

131
00:08:41,519 --> 00:08:43,720
tried to kill him. So they
got into a fight, and I was

132
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,039
screaming, like hey, knock it
off, trying to separate them. I

133
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,639
only had with me an intern,
who was like it was her second time

134
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,679
being there, I think, so
she had no idea what to do.

135
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:56,120
I tried spraying them with the hoes. Didn't stop. Now I had like

136
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,679
to at least ten other dogs out
with me at this time. I'm not

137
00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:03,600
Joe. Every other dog ganged up
on Junior and tried to kill Junior,

138
00:09:05,639 --> 00:09:09,039
and he like didn't know what to
do because this is never happening before,

139
00:09:09,039 --> 00:09:11,159
which is fair. I didn't know
what to do because I was like,

140
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:13,720
how do you stop? Like ten
against one? So he tried to like

141
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:20,000
squeeze between one of the kennels and
like this wooden pole and got stuck for

142
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:22,759
a second. Elvis grabbed his back
leg and tried to like yank it off.

143
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,679
As that's happening, another dog goes
under a ladder and the ladder falls

144
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:31,399
onto another dog. Jesus, yeah, So I finally, like Junior gets

145
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,200
out of there. He runs towards
like the outer fence, and I had

146
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,320
to like physically block him with my
body and like stand in front of him

147
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,080
and pin him against the fence and
scream at the other dogs to stop,

148
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,960
and they finally did. But like, even then, I did not think

149
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,960
that the other huskies were gonna kill
me. You know, yeah it didn't.

150
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:48,919
So, I mean, like they
got into a scuffle, Junior had

151
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:52,039
like a puncture wound his chest.
By the next day, everyone was fine.

152
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:56,480
The wound was like gone. It
was incredible because dogs are animals,

153
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,919
they're incredibly resilient. It's nuts.
But even then I wasn't afraid of that.

154
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,759
I was like, I've got this
loosely. So two weeks ago now,

155
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,840
I think it was like a week
and a half. Yeah, it

156
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:11,720
was the week of the release of
our software episode, the episode in which

157
00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:15,399
Nick made fun of my dog Penny. And I feel like you somehow manifested

158
00:10:15,399 --> 00:10:20,200
this to happen to us. It's
all your stop. Stop stop with that.

159
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,080
We're not having this conversation again,
especially not in front of all these

160
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:30,279
people. This is fault. So
oh so I have two dogs, Sawyer

161
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:33,360
and Penny, And if you follow
me on social media, beauty. Sawyer

162
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:37,000
is a very handsome boy. He's
also, in case we haven't mentioned before,

163
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,960
is beautiful. He's seventy five pounds. He's a shepherd mix. And

164
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,840
then we have Penny and she is
a terrier mix who's like twenty something pounds.

165
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:48,360
She's also cute. That is not
to be debated. Moving on.

166
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,279
The silence will speak for itself.
She's adorable. I'll post pictures of her

167
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,799
and we'll get everyone's take. Fuck
you name, I'm gonna lose that.

168
00:10:54,879 --> 00:10:58,120
What do you mean? Yeah,
now it's gonna vote on Twitter that your

169
00:10:58,159 --> 00:11:01,440
dog's ugly. She's like a little
old man cute, like she's got a

170
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,480
little mustache. She smiles and people
she's great. It's just the classic female

171
00:11:05,519 --> 00:11:11,879
beauty of mustache. Yeah, no, shame. Yeah, so she is.

172
00:11:11,039 --> 00:11:18,320
She's a classic terrier. So she
uh, how do I put this?

173
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,840
She is afraid of other dogs and
started becoming afraid of other dogs when

174
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,240
she hit like six months old.
It was crazy, like before that she

175
00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:26,320
was fine, she can meet other
dogs play, and then as soon as

176
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:31,120
she hit that six months absolutely not
even dogs that she had played with before

177
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,840
besides our dog's Sawyer, Like,
no, but she goes to daycare and

178
00:11:33,879 --> 00:11:39,799
she's fine. It's weird. So
she, in true terrier fashion, when

179
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,200
she sees another dog that she's afraid
of, she will run at them and

180
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:48,440
bite them, because terriers run at
things they're afraid of and bite them,

181
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,240
especially things that are larger than them. So that's been fun. Nick has

182
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,519
seen it firsthand with his brother's dog. We went on a hike once and

183
00:11:54,519 --> 00:12:00,639
Penny was the sweetest she is.
Yeah, my brother's dog is the nicest

184
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,360
lab in the world. Like could
not care. She doesn't even care about

185
00:12:03,399 --> 00:12:07,399
other dogs. She snapped at Sawyer, just saying, oh, sort of

186
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,799
trying to bang her. No,
he just she was under table. He

187
00:12:11,879 --> 00:12:13,480
was sniffing her, and then she
was like, get away from me.

188
00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:18,720
Anyways, this is all conjecture.
So so Penny went up to Nick's brother's

189
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,840
dog and just bitter in the neck, and then we went on to hike

190
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,080
and then they played and it was
fine. It was weird. This is

191
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,679
all to say that every day or
every other day when she's not a daycare,

192
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,399
I take her for a walk or
my partner takes her for a walk

193
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:33,000
around their neighborhood to like train her
to be less afraid of dogs because our

194
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,759
neighborhood is full of dog owners who
just either tie their dock up outside to

195
00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:41,840
bark at everybody and everything and get
super frustrated, or people let their dogs

196
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,399
off leash. I do that with
Sawyer in my yard, but it's because

197
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,879
my yard is tucked behind my house, so you can't see the street from

198
00:12:48,879 --> 00:12:52,840
my yard, and behind my house
is woods, so Sawyer either goes in

199
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,000
the woods or he's in our yard. And also if another dog is around

200
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,440
and he looks at it and starts
to go ooh, if I yell at

201
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,399
him, he comes back. And
also he's not dog aggressive, like he'll

202
00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:05,200
just walk up and be like,
hey, what's up. So we take

203
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,159
Penny out and we do like specific
training to help her not be afraid of

204
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,360
other dogs, and she's gotten really, really good. It's taken a fucking

205
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,200
the entire time we've had her,
and she's now on prozac to calm her

206
00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:20,080
down, like it's a whole thing. So she's been doing well. We

207
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,720
can walk her past houses with dogs
like lunging and snapping at her, and

208
00:13:22,759 --> 00:13:26,559
she can like just keep on going
and not get upset. So in this

209
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,000
day, I get home from work. I take her out, and there's

210
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:33,840
not many places to go in my
street, like I'm on a dead end,

211
00:13:33,879 --> 00:13:37,279
and basically I can just do a
loop, and I know which houses

212
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,480
have dogs that are aggressive in which
the house is to like watch out for,

213
00:13:39,639 --> 00:13:43,840
essentially, So I go around the
corner and I come upon this house

214
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,919
and I think, I can't remember
now if I had been there before,

215
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,799
but I know my partner was like, hey, there was these two dogs,

216
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,759
but we'd have a problem. So
I was like, okay, Actually

217
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,120
to backtrack. Before I even left
the house, I was wearing sandals,

218
00:13:56,279 --> 00:14:01,559
and I'm pretty sure we mentioned in
the dog episode with Jim Crosby make sure

219
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,440
you have the right gear. So
I was like, sandals are bad because

220
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,519
I could easily slip. So I
put on like some boots, and I

221
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:15,200
even had the thought I should carry
pepper spray and I was like no,

222
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,039
like whatever, I'll be fine,
And I had a fanny pack full of

223
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,480
dog treats and like waistbags whatever.
So we're walking and we come up on

224
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,159
this house that I knew my partner
said had had dogs, and I saw

225
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,159
two dogs. So there was a
woman outside with two toddler children, and

226
00:14:31,159 --> 00:14:35,000
then these two dogs. So I
stopped and had Penny like go into a

227
00:14:35,039 --> 00:14:37,559
sit, have her chill, and
I was like, I should turn around,

228
00:14:37,559 --> 00:14:39,759
but I was so early into the
walk that like, if I turn

229
00:14:39,799 --> 00:14:43,080
around, I just have to go
home, like there was really nowhere else

230
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,919
to go, yea, against my
better judgment, I walked by the house

231
00:14:48,879 --> 00:14:50,840
and the dogs didn't see her,
And once I got to the other side

232
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,480
of the house, I didn't see
the dogs. I was like, oh

233
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:56,440
cool, great, And across from
this house is a church where there's also

234
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:03,399
sometimes a loose dog and a bunch
of of children. So Penny sniffing something,

235
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,519
so like okay, So there's this
house on the left side of the

236
00:15:05,519 --> 00:15:07,080
street that has these two off leashtogs, and then on the right side of

237
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,679
the street across from them as the
church with like a big parking lot.

238
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,120
So Penny is facing towards the church
sniffing something, and I have anxiety,

239
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,399
so I'm constantly looking around for things
to come out like that are dangerous.

240
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:26,039
So as Penny sniffing, I turned
and I just see this big black and

241
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,080
brown dog coming at us, but
like quietly, I don't think it even

242
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,159
had a caller on because I didn't
hear any tags, or if it did,

243
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,840
it didn't have tags. Within I
had like seconds, so I scooped

244
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,399
Penny up. Oh god, I'm
even like getting anxious talking about it.

245
00:15:37,679 --> 00:15:41,840
So he scooped Penny up, and
she like had no idea what was going

246
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,600
on, and I just started screaming
like no, and it stopped for a

247
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:48,759
second and like looked at me as
if it was confused, like why are

248
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:54,600
you yelling at me? But it
kept looking between me and Penny like as

249
00:15:54,639 --> 00:15:58,679
if trying to decide, like should
I jump, Like that was my first

250
00:15:58,679 --> 00:16:00,200
thought that it was going to try
to jump on it, And I was

251
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,759
like, if this dog jumps on
us, like I have nothing to do.

252
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:07,120
Penny's leash is super short because we're
working on healing, Like if I

253
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,200
let her go, she's gone,
and if I hold her now, I'm

254
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:17,120
stuck fighting this dog with Penny like
three feet for me. So as I'm

255
00:16:17,159 --> 00:16:22,159
deciding these things holding Penny, a
second dog equally as large comes running.

256
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,679
This second dog. Clearly, to
me from like my experience with dog behavior,

257
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,159
looked just like it was tagging along
with the first dog, like it

258
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,159
didn't really it wasn't really necessarily aggressive. It was just like what do we

259
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:37,159
do? Like, what are we
go? So this first dog is barking.

260
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,799
Penny is snapping at them, also, thank god, not trying to

261
00:16:41,799 --> 00:16:44,159
get out of my arms, like
she was like, hey, get away

262
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,279
from us. But she wasn't like
let me at him, you know,

263
00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:48,120
yeah, or maybe she was,
I don't know. It was a little

264
00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:53,600
blurry. So I'm screaming hey at
them or just hay in general, I

265
00:16:53,639 --> 00:16:59,480
don't see the owner a house two
houses down down the street, there are

266
00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:03,080
two people outside doing stuff to their
car. They never fucking did anything,

267
00:17:03,159 --> 00:17:06,079
and it still pisses me off.
They never came over to try to help.

268
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:11,519
They never yelled, nothing fucked them. So here I am holding Penny.

269
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,480
I have nothing with me besides my
body and treats. All I could

270
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,839
think to do was throw treats at
them. And I just had like freeze

271
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,400
dried chickens, so I'm just throwing
handfuls of chicken at them. The first

272
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,440
dog was still stare like coming after
us. Because I started walking to the

273
00:17:26,519 --> 00:17:29,920
church parking lot to get away from
them and like make space, and they

274
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,880
that first dog just kept coming.
The second dog was sniffing the treats like

275
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:37,559
m I'm interested. But this first
dog, it was the first time in

276
00:17:37,559 --> 00:17:41,000
my life where I felt like a
dog was gonna hurt me, and the

277
00:17:41,039 --> 00:17:45,480
first time I felt like I didn't
have control over the city. Well,

278
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,359
not like I mean, clearly I
had enough control of that husky situation,

279
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,039
but like, that was the first
time I felt like things could go really

280
00:17:52,039 --> 00:17:56,359
bad and that it could hurt me
if you were actively involved in the dog

281
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,559
wanted to do damns to something like
you were a point of interest. Would

282
00:18:00,599 --> 00:18:02,920
have bitten me, and it would
have tried to kill Penny, and it

283
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,799
easily could have killed Penny. It
was like the size of sawyer. So

284
00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:10,200
I'm screaming. I'm screaming, and
finally the owner comes and she's like,

285
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,000
hey, get over here, and
she's yeng at them. I think she

286
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:17,119
said she was sorry, and then
she got the dogs and took them back

287
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,319
to her house. I at some
point, I don't know have much time

288
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,359
passed, but I finally put Penny
down the ground and she just like sat

289
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,000
down. And I wanted so badly
to scream at this person and be like,

290
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,920
what are you Why are your dogs
off leash? What are you doing

291
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,119
you're a piece of shit. But
I was so worked up and afraid that

292
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,279
they were gonna jump on us and
try to kill Penny that I was just

293
00:18:41,319 --> 00:18:45,240
like, like about to cry and
lose it. So she gets back to

294
00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:48,960
her house, I can see her
rounding up the children in the yard to

295
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,960
bring into the house. I don't
know if a part of me thought she

296
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,119
was gonna come back and like say
she was sorry, or check on me.

297
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,839
So Penny's on the ground, I'm
kneeling next to her. I'm just

298
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,200
giving her treats, just like you're
good, you're good, You're good,

299
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:08,279
and making sure that she's okay.
I'm sobbing because I was like, this

300
00:19:08,319 --> 00:19:12,039
could ruin all of her training,
Like we've put in so much time and

301
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:17,119
effort and money into this to make
sure that she feels safe and this just

302
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,880
happened and it could ruin everything.
So as I'm sitting there thinking all of

303
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,559
this and thinking like, is the
dog at the church gonna come out?

304
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,240
Because there's an awfully sh dog there, I hear someone yell, hey,

305
00:19:27,279 --> 00:19:30,119
are you okay? And I look
up and from the direction that I came,

306
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,599
there's this woman running towards us who'd
never seen before, and I literally

307
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:38,200
just waved her off because I was
sobbing so I couldn't respond. She came

308
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:41,079
over and she was like, oh
my gosh. She like, don't cry,

309
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,359
it's okay, and I was like, I just I'm so worked up

310
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,119
because I try so hard and she's
so afraid. She was like, I

311
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,599
know, I see you walking her
all the time, and she listens to

312
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,160
you so well, and she's been
doing really good, which made me cry

313
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:59,759
for more the fact that my neighbors
noticed. So she was the nicest person.

314
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,359
She had pepper spray with her and
she was like, if they come

315
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,440
back, like, don't worry.
Yeah, she was ready. She came

316
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,359
good for her. She said,
I've had to fucking call the cops on

317
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,880
her before because she lets her dogs
off leash and they run at people.

318
00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:15,640
I was like, do you mean
so come to find out, she's actually

319
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,000
my neighbor that I like a butt
a house with, and she has a

320
00:20:18,039 --> 00:20:21,599
dog that's outside barking all the time. And I met him and his name's

321
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,720
Enzo. He is very sweet and
the best. And she was like,

322
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,079
they have run at those dogs have
come at me before, especially that first

323
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,279
one, the black brown one.
Even when I don't have my dog,

324
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,359
Like they're aggressive towards strange people,
Like I said, like the church across

325
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,000
the street has kids at it all
the time. She was like, I've

326
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,480
had to call the cops on her
before because like she doesn't have any control

327
00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:45,319
over them, they're aggressive whatever.
So she was so nice. She sat

328
00:20:45,319 --> 00:20:48,359
with me for like ten minutes until
I was okay to walk home, and

329
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,960
I was like, how the fuck
am I going to get home? I'm

330
00:20:52,039 --> 00:20:56,160
so worked up. Penny is obviously
like a little on edge. She was

331
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,640
like, call the cops, let
them know what happened to you so it

332
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,720
doesn't have to happen again. I
was like, Okay, I get home.

333
00:21:03,279 --> 00:21:07,759
Penny was a baller. She we
walked by a house that had a

334
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:11,240
dog that was tied to the house
that was barking her and lunging at her,

335
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,640
and she, like you could tell
she wasn't necessarily like, ah,

336
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,400
that's scary. She was like,
I just want to go home. Yeah.

337
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,480
Yeah. She was looking at me
and whining like, I just want

338
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,000
to go home. I get home. My partner's in the backyard somehow did

339
00:21:23,039 --> 00:21:27,599
not hear any of this happen,
and I just burst out crying and he's

340
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:32,480
like, what the heck? And
as I'm crying, Penny is whining at

341
00:21:32,519 --> 00:21:36,079
me like felt bad that I was
crying and was nervous that I was crying.

342
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,440
So it was I don't know it. We bonded over, we trauma

343
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,640
bonded. I feel like I love
her more now that we've trauma bonded over

344
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,440
this. So called the cops and
was like, this just happened to me,

345
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:48,279
and they were like, yeah,
your neighbor just called us and let

346
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,559
us know too, which I was
like, super nice. So the owner

347
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:57,279
never came back and checked on us. Fuck her. So the cop comes

348
00:21:57,319 --> 00:22:02,559
and he's like, I was at
her house a month ago because of this

349
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,359
like a similar situation, like her
dogs were off leash, just like wandering

350
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,559
the street, and we don't like
we live in a busy street and it's

351
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:11,759
like there's a lot of houses here. It's not like a sleepy little town.

352
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:17,359
So the cop says to me,
like, there, the leash law

353
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,680
in my town does not specifically say
a dog has to be on a leash.

354
00:22:21,799 --> 00:22:25,319
It just says the dog has to
be under your control. So he

355
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:26,480
went to her house and told her, like, you know, you have

356
00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:30,799
to put up a fence, or
you have to tie these dogs up somehow,

357
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,559
or like keep them on a leash, because like this can't keep happening,

358
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:41,240
or you can be arrested, so
a few things. I should have

359
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,279
brought something else with me. And
I will say, like I did beat

360
00:22:45,319 --> 00:22:48,000
myself up at first, and I
was, and I'm pretty sure I texted

361
00:22:48,039 --> 00:22:49,599
you and I was like I wish
I had done better, but you were

362
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,079
like, Penny is fine and you
are fine, Like neither you got hurt.

363
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:59,880
What you did was fine, clearly, yes, So I just had

364
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,759
this weird guilt of like I should
have done more. I should have had

365
00:23:02,759 --> 00:23:04,279
Pepper Spey with me. I should
have had an umbrella, like we talked

366
00:23:04,279 --> 00:23:07,759
to Jim about, like he gave
us a bunch of things to protect yourself

367
00:23:07,799 --> 00:23:12,519
against this happening. And like,
obviously it worked because I like we're fine,

368
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,799
and yeah, she's like taking a
few steps back in her training and

369
00:23:18,799 --> 00:23:22,160
now is like a little more anxious
on our walks, And honestly, I

370
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,759
haven't walked her as much because now
when I go over there, I'm terrified

371
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,960
and I get super worked up.
So now my partner has come with me.

372
00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:33,279
We have to like fucking walk together
and bring some sort of weapon to

373
00:23:33,319 --> 00:23:34,599
make sure that we're fine. We
haven't seen the dogs again, but I've

374
00:23:34,599 --> 00:23:38,400
only walked her two times since then
past that house, and I will say

375
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:45,200
she is not afraid of that house, which is great, Like she doesn't

376
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,519
like get all anxious around it.
She doesn't look around, which have had

377
00:23:47,519 --> 00:23:49,119
happened to dogs in the past,
like Cosmo when that dog ran at us,

378
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,559
he would always get nervous around the
house. But Penny has it,

379
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:57,720
which is great. But I've talked
for a long time. Do you want

380
00:23:57,759 --> 00:24:04,359
to say anything not? This is
your story story. So obviously having this

381
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,759
podcast was helpful because we've talked to
Jim. We had a two part episode

382
00:24:08,759 --> 00:24:14,240
with Jim, which was episode nineteen
I believe, Yeah, nineteen nineteen point

383
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,720
five, and PARTY was kicking myself, like I didn't take all of the

384
00:24:17,799 --> 00:24:21,119
advice he gave us, but I
guess like throwing treats is really the best

385
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,200
I could do at the time.
But there was another podcast I had listened

386
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,559
to last year at some point,
and it's the same podcast that Jim Crosby

387
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,240
was on. It's called The Bitie
End of the Dog with Mike Chicasio.

388
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:36,839
Episode ten of his podcast is with
Laura Monico Torelli, and she is a

389
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,079
dog trainer, like a certified dog
trainer, and she owns Rhodesian ridgbacks in

390
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,599
Chicago. And this episode that she
did with him, she tells her it's

391
00:24:45,599 --> 00:24:48,359
an hour long episode and I highly
encourage you to listen to it. But

392
00:24:49,079 --> 00:24:53,519
it was about when she was attacked. And I actually contacted her because I

393
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:56,880
wanted to talk about this story and
how it related and informed what happened to

394
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,440
me. And I was like,
you can come in the podcast and talk

395
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,400
about it, but also like it's
very traumatic what happened to her now that

396
00:25:04,559 --> 00:25:07,359
it's something similar has happened to me, Like I totally get not wanting to

397
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,519
talk about it. And she left
me the kindest voicemail I have ever received

398
00:25:11,519 --> 00:25:15,319
from anybody, and she was like, I'm fine with that coming on the

399
00:25:15,319 --> 00:25:18,279
podcast, but like I'm honored that
you want to tell my story. Like,

400
00:25:18,319 --> 00:25:19,559
definitely tell people to go listen to
that episode if they want to hear

401
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,400
like of the bity end of the
dog, if they want to hear exactly

402
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,039
what happened to her. And she
said, like I'm holding a safe space

403
00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:30,119
for you in my heart, and
I was like, oh, it was

404
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,240
so nice. So I'm gonna make
a long story short because I think you

405
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,720
should go listen to her episode.
But she was walking her dog, Veto,

406
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,079
who's a Rhodesian bridge back, when
he was nine months old, in

407
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,759
Chicago, and she had lived in
that neighborhood in Chicago for twenty years and

408
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:48,000
had other Rhodesian bridgebacks, so she
had walked the same path a bunch of

409
00:25:48,039 --> 00:25:52,480
times. So there was this one
day she was walking Veto and literally out

410
00:25:52,519 --> 00:25:56,480
of nowhere, an awfully sh dog
came up behind them and like pinned him

411
00:25:56,519 --> 00:26:00,400
to the ground and was attacking him, and she had seconds to respond,

412
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,759
so she when the dog came up
for a second, she blocked her dog's

413
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:10,440
body with her body and was just
like screaming for help and trying to stop

414
00:26:10,519 --> 00:26:14,480
this dog from attacking her dog.
And then a second dog came and they

415
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:18,720
both like for minutes, were attacking
her dog, had him pinned on the

416
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,559
ground, were like trying to kill
him, and she used her body to

417
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:29,200
cover his neck and his head and
was trying to push them away and they

418
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,079
were biting her hand. So this
was like really really bad in Chicago,

419
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,799
where there is a leash, a
law that specifically says your dog has to

420
00:26:34,799 --> 00:26:38,920
be an a leash. Laws in
Chicago that aren't followed. So well,

421
00:26:40,039 --> 00:26:44,559
yeah, I mean clearly so.
She said, like after minutes of this,

422
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,279
finally she just like saw a sneaker
and someone grabbed one of the dogs,

423
00:26:48,279 --> 00:26:49,359
and then like the first dog was
gone, then the second dog was

424
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,200
gone. They were just walking away. They didn't say anything to her,

425
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,160
They just grabbed the dogs and walked
away. There were so many bystanders.

426
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,640
I'm assuming she said, there was
like two people across the street like on

427
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,880
their phone, but like you would
run over to help if you saw someone's

428
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,240
dog being attacked and saw someone being
attacked by two dogs, like what the

429
00:27:07,279 --> 00:27:10,079
hell? Once again, go listen
to the podcast. She gets into more

430
00:27:10,079 --> 00:27:14,000
detail about it. But what kind
of dogs attack them? She just said

431
00:27:14,039 --> 00:27:18,720
that there were two large dogs.
She didn't saybacks, it's a big dog.

432
00:27:18,799 --> 00:27:22,400
Those are big, badass dogs,
Like those aren't just like fucking those

433
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,359
aren't just huskies, Like those things
are lion hunters. Yeah, I know,

434
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:32,039
they are legit badass. I think
it was because they got him so

435
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,960
off guard, you know, like
they came up had to just jump them

436
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,759
out of yeah, and with two
of them of course. Yeah, So

437
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,359
she had to go to the ear
and her dog had to go to the

438
00:27:41,599 --> 00:27:45,519
er. And you can hear more
about it in that podcast episode. But

439
00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:48,440
like he's never been the same since, and like he's never gonna be okay

440
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,079
with strange dogs because it was very
traumatic. The things she talked about in

441
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,559
that story and the things she talked
about the end, like here are things

442
00:27:55,599 --> 00:27:59,599
I would have done differently or things
she does now to Like she likes to

443
00:27:59,599 --> 00:28:03,640
play a lot, so she has
a frisbee that says do not approach on

444
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,480
it when she has her dog with
her if she sees someone else coming towards

445
00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:08,640
them with the dog, and like
she has other things like that, like

446
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,839
shirts that say like do not approach
and stuff. I'm pretty sure. So

447
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,920
she like just like flashed the frisbee
at them if they start walking. Yeah,

448
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,240
exactly, like, no, don't
come towards us. I've always had

449
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,319
that in the back of my mind, like that story because she was just

450
00:28:22,559 --> 00:28:25,359
like she cries as she talks about
it because it was so traumatic and it

451
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,039
happened now three years ago, and
like I almost had to go home the

452
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,359
day after work, because I felt
like I was just gonna have a panic

453
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,799
attack all day because I couldn't stop
think about it. I couldn't stop thinking

454
00:28:34,799 --> 00:28:38,319
about like seeing that dog running towards
us. Nothing even happened to us,

455
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,799
like we weren't bitting or anything,
so I can't imagine like me and my

456
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:47,079
dog almost being harmed. And also
the thing that really got me was like,

457
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:52,839
thank god I wasn't walking Sawyer because
I cannot pick him up. Yeah,

458
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,119
and he's eight years old. He
has hyptasplasia. If two dogs were

459
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,039
attacking him, like I would have
had to do the same thing as Laura,

460
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:04,519
and like he used my body and
I probably would have I don't know.

461
00:29:04,599 --> 00:29:07,960
I like to think what I would
have done. I have no idea.

462
00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:11,680
Yeah, you never know. Un
So you're in the no And we've

463
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,880
had another dog. We were walking
Sawyer in Penny once and we had an

464
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,759
awfully stog run at us. But
it was like a golden retriever, like

465
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:19,200
a young golden Retriever that just wanted
to play and be friends, like you

466
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,880
could tell in his body lang which
he was like, oh wiggily. And

467
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,400
then it came close and Sawyer snapped
at him like he was gonna bite him,

468
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,400
and then the puppy was like oh
shit and went home. But like

469
00:29:27,519 --> 00:29:30,440
these two dogs, it wouldn't Yeah, it would have been a bloodbath.

470
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,200
And I couldn't stop thinking about that, like what if the what ifs?

471
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:40,279
You know. Yeah, so it
was a very dramatic experience. Yeah,

472
00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:45,079
clearly, I obviously, you and
I try to be really respectful of people

473
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:51,039
that we talk about who have been
attacked by animals, depending unless no,

474
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:52,480
I'm not gonna lie, it depends. Yeah. Well, I mean I

475
00:29:52,839 --> 00:29:56,400
feel like there haven't been a ton
of stories we've covered where the people like

476
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,640
ask for it, you know what
I mean. Yeah, So I just

477
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,039
came back of this with like so
much more respect for everyone that we've talked

478
00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:07,119
about. I mean, obviously the
cases we talk about are usually pretty terrible

479
00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:11,119
and scary, and I couldn't stop
thinking about the bison episode that we did

480
00:30:11,759 --> 00:30:18,960
where the guy who was attacked went
back and his girlfriend was attacked, and

481
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,240
then he kept going back to that
area to go like hiking and stuff,

482
00:30:22,279 --> 00:30:26,440
and I was like that must,
yeah, take so much courage, because

483
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,359
even walking around my neighborhood, I'm
like afraid and I was approached by two

484
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,720
aggressive dogs, not even like gored
by a bison, you know. Yeah,

485
00:30:33,759 --> 00:30:37,920
so I don't know. I just
came out of it with so much

486
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:42,319
more respect for people and how scary
it could be. I think, like

487
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,440
the important thing is to take out
this so that you did do the right

488
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,160
things. You distracted the dogs the
best you could. You do something you

489
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,559
had to distract them, Like you
took your dog out of the situation as

490
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:56,000
much as you could. Yeah,
you did everything that you could with what

491
00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:59,079
you had. So yeah, like
now when you go out, like you

492
00:30:59,119 --> 00:31:02,200
should be taken out of the perspray
with you. You should be. It's

493
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,839
a great thing. You put on
the right shoes. You've made that decision

494
00:31:03,839 --> 00:31:07,480
there. So you're sitting here think
about all the things that you could have

495
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,519
done better when you did everything right, you did it like you think about

496
00:31:11,519 --> 00:31:14,000
the what IFFs, but like if
all right, let's put in the what

497
00:31:14,039 --> 00:31:17,160
IFFs you're going to response to in
the right way, because you just responded

498
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,880
to all these things in the right
way. Yeah, your reactions were right.

499
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,440
You know, you have to trust
your reactions. And I think if

500
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:25,599
other things did happen, you would
have found a way to get out of

501
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,160
it correctly because that's what you do. Thanks, you're welcome. I just

502
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,720
I can't stop thinking of it.
Was Sawyer like no, no, shade

503
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:36,960
de Penny, but like Sawyer is
my guy. He's different. Yeah,

504
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,200
he's like my other half. And
if something happens, oh oh my god.

505
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:45,119
Also, training an eight year old
dog to not be dog aggressive would

506
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,559
take more work, I'm assuming than
in a one year old, but that

507
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:52,920
would be almost impossible. Yeah,
and he's oh god. Yeah, and

508
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,160
he's not like the friendliest dog in
the world either, Like he does want

509
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,240
space, Like he's not things dog
aggressive, but he wants space. Yeah,

510
00:31:59,279 --> 00:32:01,079
you know, yeah, he's very
like he's a classic shepherd, where

511
00:32:01,079 --> 00:32:05,759
like he likes me and that's about
im ball and that's about it. He

512
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,559
likes everyone in his moments. But
when you want space and you try to

513
00:32:09,599 --> 00:32:14,240
invade that space, he will make
it clear. He is not aggressive,

514
00:32:14,279 --> 00:32:16,440
but he will make it clear to
stay away to other dogs. Do you

515
00:32:16,519 --> 00:32:21,200
mean like to people tell the dogs? Oh okay, yeah yeah yeah,

516
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,200
I mean he has really good social
skills, is the difference, whereas Penny

517
00:32:23,279 --> 00:32:29,440
is like just just defensive all the
time, a terror. Yeah, so

518
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,680
I guess coming away from this.
If you have a dog that you can't

519
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:38,319
physically pick up, I highly suggest
walking with somebody else who does not have

520
00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:43,880
a dog, so that way one
of you can fend off the other dog

521
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,599
and one of you can attend to
your dog, which like obviously you can't

522
00:32:46,599 --> 00:32:50,279
do all the time and that sucks. Or if you have a dog that

523
00:32:50,319 --> 00:32:52,680
you can't pick up, like you
gotta have something with you. And I

524
00:32:52,759 --> 00:32:54,039
was thinking of it, like,
you know, I'm not gonna start carry

525
00:32:54,079 --> 00:32:58,759
an umbrella with me because to me, that just doesn't it just seems like

526
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:02,039
a juggling act. If a dog
is coming at you, Yeah, and

527
00:33:02,079 --> 00:33:06,480
you have a dog you're attached to
with a leash, You're not going to

528
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:12,160
have probably the time to open an
umbrella or to pop up in a trash

529
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,440
bag or something. So pepper spray
seems like the best bed. Yeah,

530
00:33:15,759 --> 00:33:19,400
I mean, that's important that you
get a pepper spray holster then at the

531
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,839
same time, so you have to
go digging into your fanny pack and find

532
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,640
it. Yeah, make a big
deal. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

533
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,920
I mean in my case, I
could have easily like lifted Penny up

534
00:33:30,359 --> 00:33:34,839
and then sprayed them because they weren't
leaving, you know, I was because

535
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,440
I was one handing one arming her
and then throwing treats with the other hand.

536
00:33:38,559 --> 00:33:43,319
So yeah, yeah, So just
I think it's important if you have

537
00:33:43,359 --> 00:33:47,440
a dog one keep them on a
leash or under your control so this doesn't

538
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:52,680
happen to somebody else because of you. Thanks. Two, like, make

539
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:53,559
sure if you do have a dog
that you can't lift up, that you

540
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,640
have some sort of thing to protect
yourself and your dog. And this doesn't

541
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,480
even have to be towards like other
dogs approaching you. It could be wild

542
00:34:01,519 --> 00:34:07,400
animals that are approaching you, you
know, yes, yeah. And once

543
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,599
this happened to me, I shared
it on Facebook, which, like I

544
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:13,960
barely ever post on Facebook because it's
a hell hole, But it was crazy

545
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,559
to me the amount of people of
my life who responded and were like this

546
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:20,840
happened to me. Like I had
one childhood friend who this was so sad.

547
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,079
She has a dog that was like
horribly abused by men, and she

548
00:34:24,199 --> 00:34:29,119
was like, yeah, we did
training to like make her less afraid and

549
00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:31,320
make her okay walking downtown and then
one night some drunk ey got in her

550
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:37,920
face and screamed at her, and
she like just totally regressed and was terrified

551
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:42,159
again. Like, oh, like
in that case, that sucks because you

552
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,000
can't just pepper spray a dude for
yelling in your dogs. I mean you

553
00:34:45,039 --> 00:34:50,639
can, and I but absolutely would. Yeah, but yeah, just things

554
00:34:50,679 --> 00:34:53,400
like that, like don't approach dogs
that clearly don't want to be approached by

555
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,559
you. I've had people approach,
like just people not with their dogs,

556
00:34:57,559 --> 00:35:00,440
but people approach me with two dogs
that are snapping and barking at them,

557
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,599
and it's like, clearly, my
dogs do not want you closer to us,

558
00:35:04,639 --> 00:35:08,320
Please stay away from us. Yeah. Just be a respectful dog owner,

559
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:14,599
be a considerate dog owner, or
be just a considerate person around dogs.

560
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:21,320
Just don't be an asshole. Don't
be an asshole. Don't be an

561
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,880
asshole. It's really that's simple.
That's like the secrets of life is just

562
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:28,079
don't be an asshole. Be a
nice human. That's a thing that's on

563
00:35:28,199 --> 00:35:30,559
shirts now. Yeah, yeah,
let's do that. Let's make a be

564
00:35:30,559 --> 00:35:36,599
a nice human shirt. Yeah.
It's hard, it's a right, Yeah.

565
00:35:36,639 --> 00:35:38,599
I just it was crazy because after
it happened, I could barely talk

566
00:35:38,599 --> 00:35:40,880
about it without crying. Like the
day after I went to work, and

567
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,239
I was just so out of it
and told my boss, like something happened

568
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,960
to me. I'm not ready to
talk about it yet, but like if

569
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,760
i'm I'm freaking out. Yeah,
I'm freaking out internally. Yeah it was

570
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,719
bad. Yeah, So what would
you like to have done to these dogs?

571
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,119
In my heart, this is gonna
sound mean, but my heart of

572
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:01,639
hearts, I wish she didn't have
them. That's okay. I don't think

573
00:36:01,679 --> 00:36:04,920
that's really a mean thing at all. Like, I don't think they's a

574
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,039
history of these things coming after people. Yeah, And I don't think they

575
00:36:07,039 --> 00:36:09,559
should be put down. I just
think that they should be with someone who's

576
00:36:09,599 --> 00:36:14,440
more responsible because, like I don't
know, being a dog owner nowadays,

577
00:36:14,599 --> 00:36:19,119
like there's a lot of pressure with
it. Weirdly, there's a lot of

578
00:36:19,199 --> 00:36:22,199
legal responsibility with them. Well there
is, right, and but I think

579
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,280
that there's a lot of pressure nowadays
to be like to treat your dogs like

580
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:30,639
their children, to do everything you
can for your dog and make sure your

581
00:36:30,679 --> 00:36:31,920
dog has the best life it should. Which like, obviously, if you

582
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,519
love your dogs, do it.
But there are a lot of people in

583
00:36:36,559 --> 00:36:38,400
my neighborhood who just have their dogs
like tie, like they just tie them

584
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:43,320
up outside and leave them. And
I think that used to be like the

585
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,039
thing to do, and now that's
seen as like you're a bad owner.

586
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:51,400
Well, I mean, I think
there's an important distinction between having them tied

587
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,440
up outside, which is a safe
way to have a dog, yeah,

588
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:59,199
and laying them loose, which might
make them happier, which is great.

589
00:36:59,199 --> 00:37:02,360
Your dog's happier. Guess what,
they're not trained well enough or responsible enough.

590
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:07,320
And it's also just a terrible fucking
idea and they might go do dumb

591
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,519
shit. So treating them like a
like a child is not a good thing

592
00:37:12,159 --> 00:37:15,280
because we don't tie up our children. We should be Oh I see media.

593
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,159
Yeah that's just no. Like you
treat your dogs well, yeah,

594
00:37:19,159 --> 00:37:22,360
but don't let them do what they
want. Some people have kids on leashes,

595
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,360
which I think is a great idea. Yeah, fuck, go for

596
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,800
it, that's fund with me.
Yeah, I just I think it's hard,

597
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,800
right, they are animals. Yeah, it's hard because if you tie

598
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,719
up, if you just tie up
your dog and lead them outside, they're

599
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:37,719
gonna get super frustrated, and well
then you're a bad owner. Again,

600
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,639
like this just like there's a there's
a middle Yet, I know, it's

601
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:45,039
it's hard because I'm sure that woman, like if she was letting her dogs

602
00:37:45,039 --> 00:37:49,159
off leash and they were aggressive before, she's not going to be the type

603
00:37:49,159 --> 00:37:52,480
of person to like I mean,
I'm projecting, but she's not gonna be

604
00:37:52,519 --> 00:37:54,679
the type of person that's gonna like
try to work to train that out of

605
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,360
them, you know what I mean. All right, Well, you said

606
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,320
there was a bunch of kids outside, So my guess would be is that

607
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,800
these kids before running in and out
and let the door open, the kids,

608
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:06,679
then the dogs got No, she
was actively outside like rearranging. The

609
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,039
woman, the adult was like out
in her backyard rearranging things with her dogs

610
00:38:10,079 --> 00:38:14,880
around her with the kids. No, yeah, that's her. Yeah,

611
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,159
oh yeah No, it was very
much on her, was not the kids

612
00:38:16,159 --> 00:38:21,199
that just like let them out idiot. Yeah, So I don't know.

613
00:38:21,199 --> 00:38:24,679
It's also hard because like that day
that this happened, we started fencing in

614
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:30,000
our yard, like before this happened, because we were like, you know,

615
00:38:30,159 --> 00:38:34,559
Sawyer can be off leash and it's
fine, but Penny will and has

616
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,840
run away if you let go of
the leash, So we have to just

617
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,199
stand in our yard holding her attached
to a leash, which sucks. So

618
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,400
like, what's the middle ground?
You just tie your dog up and leave

619
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,159
them and then they get super frustrated, or do you pull on us and

620
00:38:46,199 --> 00:38:49,480
just have to stand attach to them
all the time, which is probably the

621
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:52,119
best bet to make them the happiest. But like and not everyone can fence

622
00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:55,119
in their yard. But if you
can, I feel like that's your best

623
00:38:55,159 --> 00:39:00,400
bet. Which if you cannot safely
be off leash, and yes, you

624
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,000
have to have it tied up or
you have to hold its leash. Yeah,

625
00:39:02,119 --> 00:39:05,719
that's it's the only option. Like
that's the way it is. Yep,

626
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,840
Like it sucks, You're right,
it sucks. But if you're getting

627
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:12,480
a dog, you are committing to
doing the things that suck for the dog.

628
00:39:13,079 --> 00:39:15,280
Yeah, that's part of being a
dog on Yeah, So the cop

629
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,719
was saying to me, like,
you know, she can either just tie

630
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,960
them up, keep them on a
leash, or like put up an electric

631
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,880
fence or an actual fence. But
I was like, they are the dogs

632
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:29,639
that will blow through an electric fence
that will not stop them. Yeah,

633
00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:31,440
So because a lot of that happens
with a lot of dogs, Like if

634
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,760
they're super aggresive, they're just going
to blow through it. They don't care

635
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,079
if they get zapped, and depending
on the dog, they might not even

636
00:39:37,079 --> 00:39:39,800
feel it. So the trenaline's pumping
and they just don't. Yeah, like

637
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,159
bigger breeds like Rottweilers and stuff,
I'm sure it's hard to get through that

638
00:39:44,199 --> 00:39:46,519
skin. And like even terriers have
thick skin around their necks for a reason.

639
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:57,760
So yeah, yeah, So anyways, that's my story. I think

640
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,800
I need a beer. It's only
like eleven am. Oh my god,

641
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,880
the was nude? Wow? We
even chatting for beers? Then hell,

642
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:06,239
yeah, you know what, let's
let's grab some beers and do our bonus

643
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,679
episode. Then I'm so down.
Okay, let's do it. Let's wrap

644
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:14,000
this up. Okay, do you
want to leave that in or you want

645
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:19,760
to cut that out? Oh?
Really? Everybody poops? Yeah, I

646
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:24,719
guess yeah, and if you don't
see a doctor. Now, I'm trying

647
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:31,039
to make jokes because i'muncomfortable from talking
for so long. You did great,

648
00:40:30,519 --> 00:40:34,719
ever, be very supportive. I
know, well, because I feel like

649
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,480
if you're listening to this podcast,
you're not You're not a dumb owner because

650
00:40:37,559 --> 00:40:43,880
you care. Stiff tell you,
I intentionally don't have any pets for a

651
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,280
reason. Yeah, first walk because
my partner complex won't let me. But

652
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,880
also I can't properly take care of
any pets right now, so I don't

653
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,320
have any. It's really hard,
and I feel like I wish people talked

654
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,360
openly about it, more like when
you have a lot of family members right

655
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:59,920
now with puppies and it's hard.
It's like having a baby, and there's

656
00:41:00,079 --> 00:41:02,199
all this new pressure on you to
treat your dog like a baby, like,

657
00:41:02,519 --> 00:41:06,280
oh, you can't leave your dog
in the crate for X amount of

658
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:07,880
hours. You can't. You have
to do this, this, and this

659
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,400
with them and make sure they go
to school, and they should go to

660
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:15,039
daycare. It's nuts. I disagree
with a lot of that, but those

661
00:41:15,039 --> 00:41:16,079
are nice things to do. I
don't think they're required. I mean,

662
00:41:16,079 --> 00:41:19,760
we've had dogs for how many thousands
of years and we haven't done that shit.

663
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,760
Like I think we'll be okay,
but so I know we're towards the

664
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:28,400
end. And I haven't put statistics
in until now, but I would be

665
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:32,760
remiss if we did not throw out
some statistics. So according to the American

666
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:37,159
Veterinary Medical Association, and I'll throw
a link to this article that I'm finding

667
00:41:37,159 --> 00:41:43,840
this information from. But there are
four point five million people in the US

668
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,760
a year that are bitten by dogs? Is that their own dogs? Is

669
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:52,039
that just doggs? Like? What
are just okay? Any dog? What

670
00:41:52,039 --> 00:41:55,159
do we count as a bite?
A bite like being I mean, like

671
00:41:55,599 --> 00:42:00,440
I've gotten they get if I'm playing
with my brother's dog or with sore penny,

672
00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:04,559
like like an aggressive I'm assuming this
means an aggressive bite to the point

673
00:42:04,599 --> 00:42:07,800
where you're like, I want to
know, like, what are we talking

674
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,760
about? Somebody? But remember we
talked with Jim Crosby and he was saying

675
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,880
like, if you're bitten by a
small dog, you're probably not gonna report

676
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:17,119
it. This is like people reporting
dog bites. So out of those four

677
00:42:17,199 --> 00:42:22,119
point five million, eight hundred thousand
received medical attention for dog bites according to

678
00:42:22,159 --> 00:42:25,039
the CDC, really not that bad. That's about how many dogs. It's

679
00:42:25,079 --> 00:42:28,360
a lot. Do you think about
how many dogs there are. It's not

680
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,679
that bad. So these are animals. These aren't people. These are animals.

681
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:36,039
Like, well, still, it's
a lot of people. It's a

682
00:42:36,039 --> 00:42:37,000
lot of people, it is.
But I don't think the numbers are that

683
00:42:37,039 --> 00:42:40,719
bad. I do, one in
five people, but my dogs require medical

684
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:45,159
attention, and children are the most
common victims by far and are more likely

685
00:42:45,199 --> 00:42:50,039
to be severely injured, which we
talked about in our episode nineteen with Jim,

686
00:42:50,119 --> 00:42:53,239
which is tragic. Ye. Most
dog bites affecting young children occur during

687
00:42:53,400 --> 00:43:00,719
everyday activities and while interacting with dogs
that they know. Yep. So they

688
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:05,159
are animals, people. They are
not teddy bears. They're not freaking stuffed

689
00:43:05,199 --> 00:43:07,559
animals. They are animals. They
will hurt you. And I also want

690
00:43:07,599 --> 00:43:14,880
to talk about just really quick.
So you remember Sam from episode one about

691
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:21,559
tigers. So apparently there is a
video going around the internet of a tiger

692
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,480
killing a dog. Really yes,
so Sam, you can follow her on

693
00:43:25,559 --> 00:43:31,360
Twitter at Samantha I Am. And
Sam did this thread about feral dogs in

694
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,320
India and she did not post.
She posted a picture from the video,

695
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,679
but not the video itself, and
it's literally a picture of a tiger sleeping

696
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:43,960
and a dog standing next to it
staring at it. Oh yeah. So

697
00:43:44,199 --> 00:43:46,480
in this thread, Sam goes on
to say, like dogs pose a huge

698
00:43:46,559 --> 00:43:52,440
risk to wildlife in India, like
feral dogs, because in India there are

699
00:43:52,519 --> 00:44:00,519
sixty million feral dogs. Jesus Christ. Yeah, so Sam in this thread

700
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:05,679
says, in some areas there are
at least five feral dog attacks on people

701
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,599
per day. Jesus, Yeah,
and that's feral. That's not even like

702
00:44:08,639 --> 00:44:14,119
people's pet dogs, you know.
Yeah. So I don't want to say

703
00:44:14,119 --> 00:44:16,079
the situation here in America is better
because it's still not great. Like we

704
00:44:16,079 --> 00:44:20,719
can all still be better, but
like dogs aren't. It's significantly better than

705
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,480
India, like we I think people, that's significantly better. Yeah, we

706
00:44:24,519 --> 00:44:29,079
have way less feral dogs, but
still like it's aggressive dogs are still a

707
00:44:29,079 --> 00:44:31,880
problem. Just throw Aggresive dogs will
always be a problem because they will always

708
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:36,400
be animals and not stuffed animals.
Yeah, but they're domesticated. It's a

709
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,960
little different than just like owning a
fucking cougar. Then why are they attacking

710
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:44,320
people? Because it's no different because
they're still animals. Just say, I

711
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:49,079
wonder why those feral dog attacks happen, You know what I mean, Hunger?

712
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,719
I'd just say hunger. They're not
getting food and you see someone walking

713
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:58,760
down the street with the fucking bastard
fries, you with those fries, Maybe

714
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,000
maybe we should looking at that more. But anyways, this was our second

715
00:45:02,039 --> 00:45:08,159
dog episode. I guess it's a
third Jim Crosby one. Yeah, so

716
00:45:09,199 --> 00:45:14,360
I know. It was all over
the place, but that's where that's how

717
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,119
I am, that's how I exist
lately. It's just all over the place.

718
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:22,920
Oliver got fucking ripped to shreds by
his dogs, and he's still wolves.

719
00:45:22,519 --> 00:45:28,480
Most of them as wolves a little
different, very different, honestly,

720
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,719
and he still just has Oliver.
If you're listening, after this incident happened

721
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:35,599
to me, I thought of you, and I was like, how because

722
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,000
remember in our Wolf episode, I
was saying, like, I feel like

723
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:44,840
I've been underestimating wolves. I underestimated
dogs. And I was like, oh,

724
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,760
dogs aren't scary. I know dogs, but like, I fucking I

725
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:52,119
get it now that they are which
one wants to get you. So oh

726
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:57,880
yeah, yeah. So I have
nothing but respect and compassion for those who

727
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:04,559
have been attacked as someone who was
a most attacked and thankfully not Hey,

728
00:46:05,079 --> 00:46:09,960
that's a good place stand it said
the thing all right. So I'll put

729
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:15,159
some links in the episode description to
that episode. On that episode on the

and it's the same. It seems
like there's a lot more going, doesn't

744
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,000
it. I can't decide if it's
like just the fact that we're more keyed

745
00:47:16,039 --> 00:47:21,679
into this stuff, or if it's
like actually increasing. I think it's increasing.

746
00:47:22,039 --> 00:47:27,599
According to you Wild there was also
a man mauled by a grizzly last

747
00:47:27,599 --> 00:47:30,639
week in Wyoming, so follow us

a story about a monkey and bulletproof armor

749
00:47:35,199 --> 00:47:38,840
in a shootout with a cartel.
You'll have to see it to believe it.

750
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:44,599

not have social media. I am the

754
00:47:54,920 --> 00:48:01,239
ghost Nick has Mono though, so
I do I currently have Mono? Can

755
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:06,960
you get as quick the entire week
of work? Yeah? I missed the

756
00:48:07,079 --> 00:48:08,960
entire week of work. I showed
up on Monday morning. They said leave

757
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:13,760
like they were almost immediately. Everyone
was like, don't be here. How

758
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,559
do you get me? Didn't know
I had mono, went went in.

759
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:20,519
I mean it's from the like the
spread of saliva like it. It's a

760
00:48:20,559 --> 00:48:24,000
saliva based diseased. I am a
single man. I have not kissed anyone

761
00:48:24,039 --> 00:48:27,360
in quite a long time. I
will open that up to the whole world.

762
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,719
I have no fucking idea how I
got. You must have shared drinks

763
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:36,599
with somebody. It's either from a
vape or a drink or something. So

764
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:42,199
someone in your life has mono.
Also, maybe I don't know, man,

765
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,559
it could be from someone. I'm
talking to someone randomly and a piece

766
00:48:45,559 --> 00:48:47,480
of spit lands on my hand and
then I touched my eyeball like it could

767
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:52,679
be stuff like that. Gross,
So I don't know, Like it's just

768
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:57,280
there's so many random in your eyeball. I didn't know. I don't I

769
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,400
don't know. I'm that's not saying
that's what happened. I'm just saying I

770
00:48:59,599 --> 00:49:02,360
don't spit each other. Yeah,
it's okay without consent and without testing yourself

771
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:07,000
for mono first anyway, Yes,
I have been very very sick all week

772
00:49:07,039 --> 00:49:09,280
and it's the first day been a
would like actually speak. So it's a

773
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:14,760

774
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:16,519
think that's it. Thank you to
my good friends. Second grand husband Josh

775
00:49:16,599 --> 00:49:22,039
Walsh, who met one of you
listeners in the wild on an island.

776
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:30,280
Insane to me that just like he
was in Bermuda and like someone they were

777
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:31,920
just talking and they were like,
oh I listened to Gain Alive and he

778
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:37,320
was like, Hi, I'm second
grade husband. Also, just for contact,

779
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,039
Josh and I are not married.
We were never legally married. We

780
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:45,440
just pretended we were for years.
So anyone that knows Josh wants to date

781
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:49,280
him. He is single, I
assume I don't know. I'm pretty sure

782
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:53,159
Josh is available. If not,
congratulations to Josh. Will knock him after

783
00:49:53,199 --> 00:49:57,280
