The dog was probably a pit bull mix. Many dogs that are in dog pounds looking for homes are pit bull crosses. People swear they are good dogs, however they can be unpredictable and can get aggressive often going for the throat be it other dog or even a child.

You probably experience other emotions and these surface when you get near the location or your neighbor. Often it’s not just anger that surfaces, but anger is more allowed.

When a person genuinely loves their dog or cat or horses etc. it’s deeply insulting and disturbing when that is devalued and disrespected. There are people that have animals and don’t place the same value on them. It’s just a dog sentiment like it’s more of an object then a living caring loyal presence that is truly loved and cherished.
