Monday-Bite

Ah..... another gorgeous sunrise this morning, followed by some stretching some great coffee and then an eventful walk with the dogs!  I've been trying to rain a 6 year old Rottweiler.  He is basically a junk yard dog raised only to guard the house, never off the chain, never loved on or exercised.  He has bitten several people and added another to the list this morning!  I was talking with a farmer and is friend.  CAP was wagging his tail as the new guy petted him.   Then after sitting calmly for a few minutes he just exploded and to my surprise and horror, attached the new guy and bit his arm.  Fortunately, he barely broke the skin, but left a nasty bruise I am sure.  I slammed him down and he sat quietly while we finished our conversation, though I kept him very tight on the lease.  What a bummer.  I was half tempted to put him down.... Cannot have him around anyone or out in public at all.  Good to guard the house.  Will continue to walk him and exercise him and discipline him.  And just keep him away from people.
The kind of excitement I could do without!  Another day in the saga of settling in Panama!

Ciao for now!
