No RHertz I will not apologize to them. I call them that because of the way they were behaving. We were just trying to walk our dog. The first kid comes up screaming and yelling at her, a dog this kid obviously doesn't know, and Rosie sat back on her feet and began barking and growling her business bark. Few minutes later my son, the 12 y/o, is standing beside and another one of these children runs up to him and starts screaming and is about to hit him. Well, son screamed "Stop" and the dog recognized a threat on her "child" and began barking and growling like Cujo. At this point I decided it was time to go. These children were obviously not realizing they should leave strangers they don't know alone and to leave strange dogs they don't know alone. As we were leaving a very small child runs up behind her and tries to grab her tail. The dog spins around and before she could bite or do anything my son pushed the child out of the way. I had the dog on a very short tight leash. She could not have gotten six inches from me. The dog had never acted this way before towards anyone other than another dog that came on our property. I just felt like the parents were not watching their children and the kids were not behaving. I have always taught mine to respect strange dogs and never approach them without permission from the owners and never in a threatening manner.
