Cute bunny! My grandfather raised rabbits, always a couple dozen at a time. When I was really little I wanted to see if a rabbit would eat a pretzel...so I put a small bit on my finger and stuck it in the cage. :in pain: Yep, ate the pretzel and bit me good. I still remember my grandpa pouring peroxide all over the bite and putting on a bandage. Then I was right out there scolding that rabbit! :joyfull:
I love your story, thanks for the laugh!:D

Ha! I've also had that question asked of me before when walking the dog; but for some reason, I always thought it was funny! :happy: When someone asks the question, I always reply, "He is!" :p To me, it's just one of those little ice breaker comments that people make. It's sort of a subliminal thing--I think that people walking dogs tend to appear more approachable to some strangers, and it's kind of a way for them to say "hi". ;) It's sort of like walking around with a prop that garners people's attention! :D

You're nice. :inlove:

My experience is they are generally men 10-20 years older than me and it is said not as an icebreaker but more obnoxiously, thinking also that they are clever. Funny thing is I likely have the best trained Pup on a leash.

Around 10 am this morning I was out with DD and Walt on riverwalk and my DD suddenly is said---What is he focusing in on, he was intense. Sure enough about 150 feet was a coyote looking just intensely at Walt, so we all calming kept walking slowly towards him and I can sense Walt getting in that lets chase the squirrel in the yard mode and the coyote got on the riverwalk and picked up his pace skedaddling down the path and out of sight. Unnerved my DD, Walt went back to smelling trees. About 4 blocks up when we were hitting the footbridge there was the coyote again out in the grass field. Walt stopped and stared and the coyote again got on the path and disappeared around the bend. Guess just the sight of Walt being so much bigger than the coyote was enough to scare him off. We took the other path over the bridge where we came up upon a man who creeped both my DD and I out and then Walt started to bark at him. We were in an open area so we took the opposite path and went out to Road.

You can never be too careful. When I was in a Drug store and was about 18 I noticed this guy following me around the store. I made my purchase and went out the door, he followed close behind, I took a quick turn back into the store and waited at the door until he got in his car and left. He made the hair stand up on the back of my neck! :devilish: (Notice, I didn't say the top of my head). As my hair wasn't gray back in the day!:D

Yeah. I was also biting my tongue a little while ago. I was in line to check out with my DD and the guy checking out of the store turned and 'looked' at me and then fixated on my DD looking her up and down, she was looking off in another direction and he kept turning to 'look' at her. Even as he was leaving he turned back again to look at her one more time. I'd say he was mid sixty's. Ewe Ewe Ewe, so wanted to to tell the creep off. :mad:

And sadly law enforcement all over is having a rough time lately. So for a feel good...

On Friday, Chicago police officer Sergeant B. Hagarty, a 35-year veteran of the force, was seen buying Chipotle for a homeless man by fellow customer Rachel Mitchell. Hagarty was buying himself a meal in the Mexican eatery when he noticed the man rooting in the bins outside and invited him in for some food.

That's says so much about a person's character. Sorry that happened to you and DD.
