strange situation

[enan]

Some one off the street I might be a bit concerned, the other day we went to Arby's drive thru for their 5 for 5 deal, a two roast beef for me, one for Husker, one for Helo, and one for mommie. the drive thru guy gave us a small fry for the boys. we all enjoyed them...

No. Unless we provide people with the treats to give our girls, we never allow it. Especially from strangers who are "waiting with treats". A little odd, and who knows if they "laced" the treats with something? I'm just not that trusting of strangers.

I would not allow it either. From a stranger I would be very suspisous of the motive.
But I always carry a bag of dehydrated treats with me, mainly for all the kids that just love to pet Bär & want to feed him cookies. I just tell them, Bär gets a tummy ache from cookies, then hand out the treats that he is allowed to have. Keeps the kids & Bär happy.

Well, I completely agree- one needs to be cautious, and I would not accept treats from strangers. The priority is to protect your dog.

However, I have a couple of acquaintances who are basically harmless old men who love dogs, and I can see them doing something like this with no ill intent at all. Shoot, I can see myself turning into them and doing the same thing some day.... not that far from now!:lol:
