DEAR PEOPLES
HI IT IS ME SPARKY
TODAY A BAD THING HAPPENED. I WILL TELL IT TO YOU. I WAS OUTSIDE SNIFFING THINGS. A DOG RUNNED UP TO US SNAPPING AND GROWLING. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WANTED TO GROWL AND SNAP. I WANTED TO RUN AWAY. MOMMY PICKED ME UP TO NOT GET BIT. THE DOG JUMPED UP HER LEG TO TRY TO GET ME! MOMMY YELLED
DAVID COME GET YOUR DAMNED DOG!
HE DID NOT. MOMMY YELLED AGAIN. HE COMED TO GET HIS DOG. HE SAID
HE IS NOT HURTING ANYTHING.
MOMMY SAID
HE IS SNAPPING AT SPARKY!
THE MAN PICKED THE DOG UP TO SAY BAD DOG! AND HITTED IT TWO TIMES. I DID NOT LIKE THAT PART. IT IS NOT GOOD TO HIT LITTLE DOGGIES.
NOW YOU KNOW TODAY I MEETED THE NEW DOG THAT MOVED IN NEXT DOOR. MOMMY IS NOT HAPPY.
THAT IS ALL!
LOVE FROM SPARKY SCARED LITTLE DOG AND MAD AND MAD MOMMY
Dear Sparky,
You are right. Hitting is not good. When dogs do naughty things, the peoples must show the dogs the right way. Hitting shows the dogs that hitting must be the right way. One time our neighbor brought his naughty dog over and the neighbor hit the dog. My Woman would not let him come with a dog anymore. Off limits, not allowed.
After you and mommy calm down, you can put your noggins together and think of a way to make friends. Do you have any Snausages? That could be a start. “Hey David’s damned dog! You wanna cookie? Then be nice!”
Love, Dakota
The apartment manager has been informed that my neighbor’s dog was loose and rude. She didn’t seem to care much. They”ve been friends (the manager and the neighbor) for many years and he can pretty much do what he wants. If that dog snaps at my Sparky again he’s going to the pound. I will not put up with this shit.
I am one mad mommy.
DEAR DAKOTA
I LIKE IT WHEN YOU WRITE TO ME.
I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A FRIEND DOG TO PLAY CHASE AND WRESTLE AND RUN. THAT WOULD BE NICE.
LOVE SPARKY
Sparky, you are such a funny boy. I read your posts every time. You’re a cutie for sure! And your mommy sounds like my kind of person. But remember…David’s damned dog probably needs love. Doesn’t sound like damned David shows him much. Damned David…
Dear Sparky, I agree with D-dawg…. can your mom extend an olive branch or snausage? Remember- there are no bad dawgs, just bad owners. Mom said she knows all bout bad neighbors and it never ends well if you get into a pissin match….cause you still have to live there. Maybe mom could got over (without you) and talk to the bad person and say hey, your dog scared the crap out of me- my dog has been through alot etc. Im afraid you dog will injure him etc. Maybe you could bring your dog over on a leash and we can give them treats together?
Play the underdog and see if you can garner any sympathy from neaderthalman. Hope you can find a nice friend to play with.

Oh Sparky that is so sad that the neighbor dog is sooo scary and that his person thinks it’s ok to hit. I lived next door some years back to a very aggressive larger dog that would stalk me and my dog when we were out in the yard. He would try to get under the fence to us. It was scary! I finally started bringing treats to her and she eventually warmed up and actually got excited to see us. Maybe you could try that.
