At least a Pit bull doesn\u2019t wag its tail like it\u2019s all friendly then start snapping.<\/p>\n<p>Every freaking encounter I\u2019ve had with a Chihuahua from boyhood to literally today. They wag their tail and act all friendly then when you, or in today\u2019s case Jesse was close enough to bite they started snapping.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Two of these little fucking dogs would not let Jesse and I pass on the road, during our walk today.<\/p>\n<p>I was going to try to pass through them but they started snapping at Jesse\u2019s feet and my ankles. I really did think about just fucking stomping them &amp; kicking their carcasses into the wash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chihuahuas are the only dog that has consistently bitten me throughout my whole damn life.<\/p>\n<p>The only other dog bite I\u2019ve ever had was from a half blind German Shepard who bit me coming over the fence into his yard. Poor guy probably just saw a dark blur and thought I was a threat. He didn\u2019t even break the skin, a little bruising but no punctures. Afterwards though, we ended up being great friends.  I think he really felt bad about it when he figured out I was a young human.<\/p>\n<p>Much as I try to stay away from Chihuahuas and honestly their owners, (who more often than not are irresponsible pet owners anyway,) the little fuckers always seem to get a piece of me.<\/p>\n<p>It wouldn\u2019t be a problem if I could treat them like the annoying nuisances they are, and kill them like biting flies or mosquitoes. But there are all kinds of animal cruelty laws and I\u2019m sure that I\u2019d be the bad guy for popping a Chihuahuas head under my boot.<\/p>\n<p>For years, I\u2019ve thought the breed was probably okay, it was the owners that didn\u2019t train them properly. Now I\u2019m not so sure. They\u2019re overly aggressive always. They\u2019re loud, irritating, territorial beyond all boundaries for their size, and just fucking annoying.<\/p>\n<p>One of the little fuckers bit Jesse today. Fortunately it didn\u2019t have the strength in its jaws to draw blood. Jesse wasn\u2019t amused in the least and once he realized these things were not wagging their tails in friendship he was very confused. Fortunately, he\u2019s got really quick reflexes so after the first bite these two pieces of shit never touched him again.<\/p>\n<p>For a moment or two I really weighed the risk\/reward of letting him off leash. I don\u2019t know if he would have simply led them down into the wash and left them trapped there for another predator, or killed them. I also considered trying to get them to follow Jesse and I across the bridge into the construction zone near the main road, or better yet into the wilderness area that Jesse has, of late, not wanted to enter.<\/p>\n<p>His reluctance is probably due to a predator or predators. But two tasty morsels offered up might buy Jesse and I safe passage until next spring.<\/p>\n<p>In the end we managed to back up to a point that they lost interest. They were 1\/2 mile from where they live when they finally decided to leave us alone so that I could check Jesse to see if he\u2019d been hurt.<\/p>\n<p>Even then, 1\/2 mile is a long way for such a small dog whose owners I\u2019ve seen around. One owner is fat as a house and the other is on a walker even though she\u2019s not that old, just obese. It\u2019s not likely they\u2019d come looking or would be able to come looking. But these days you never know who might be pointing an unwelcome camera at you for TikTok likes or some shit.<\/p>\n<p>It was that last bit that prevented me from taking action.<\/p>\n<p>I honestly think that Chihuahuas are dangerous. The danger is that people look at them as \u201cCute, silly little dogs that can\u2019t do much damage.\u201d  They shouldn\u2019t be allowed to do <strong>ANY<\/strong> damage, but since it\u2019s minimal, people look the other way. A Chihuahua is unlikely to kill a human unless the human is an infant or toddler and the Chihuahua was part of a pack of Chihuahuas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That doesn\u2019t mitigate the harm them biting someone, or another dog, causes. Had Jesse been injured I\u2019d have been the one paying the Vet bill. Again, irresponsible owners.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of their size, they\u2019re still dogs. In fact they were hunting dogs for, I think, the Aztecs? I forget what they hunted but it was something that lived underground and Chihuahuas could chase it from its burrow.<\/p>\n<p>I guess part of the reason I hate the Chihuahuas so much is that even if they\u2019re attacking you, you\u2019re the one that looks like a cruel person if you hurt one. They\u2019re duplicitous start to finish. They\u2019ll appear friendly then turn on you, they\u2019re small so kicking one or killing one make you the bad guy. Worst of all, they\u2019re always loud, yappy, and poorly trained. I have yet to see a Chihuahua obey the commands of its owner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m in favor of the Chihuahua breed to be banned, and fed directly into a wood chipper.
