Oh wow, can I totally relate to this!
Last weekend, I was trying to do some grocery shopping (in wretched heat!) and this man was watching me from his top down sports car and he also had a dog sitting beside him. Now, I absolutely LOVE dogs and dare I say, often I find that I love dogs better than most people! But here's the weird creepy thing that occurred:
As I'm pushing my cart to my car, this guy begins saying things like: "My dog can't stop looking at you" and "My dog likes your pink car" and so on. I was polite, smiled and said "Thank you" but just kept moving. I unloaded my groceries and he was still watching me and I began to feel VERY creeped out by all of this. I sat in my car, with the doors locked and waited for him to pull away first as I honestly started to wonder: "Is he going to follow me?" So, he slowly pulled away and honked his horn at me. It was all just YUCK.
Funny thing is: I DO believe that dogs are quite intelligent and if I could have taken this man's dog I would have, not the man, mind you, but the dog!
