Today, I tossed half a sausage to a dog sitting beside a park bench. It wasn't until he lunged for it and dragged the man beside him off of the bench that I realized it was a seeing eye dog. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took my dog to the dog park and let him off the leash for a bit. He ran straight towards a group of people having a picnic, jumped on their blanket, and devoured half of their food before I could catch him. They were surprisingly forgiving, but I had to buy them lunch to make up for it. FML
Today, a dog came into my yard. I bent down to pet him, forgetting I had a burger in my hand. The dog grabbed it and ran. FML
Today, I was having a conversation with a friend at the park when my dog ran up to me with something in his mouth. I thought it was a stick. I bent down to take it, only to realize it was a dead squirrel. My dog just stared at me, tongue lolling, like, “It’s a stick, throw it.” FML
Today, my cousin and I were out on the boardwalk. I walked to the railing next to a man and said, "Great view isn't it?" Then I found out that the man was blind and had a seeing eye dog. FML
Today, I took my dog to the park, and he ran straight into a group of people having a picnic. Naturally, he grabbed the biggest piece of meat in sight and ran off with it. As I chased him, I tripped and fell in front of everyone. My dog then sat and chewed the meat in front of me. FML
Today, my dog was barking at a squirrel in the yard. I opened the door to let him chase the squirrel. I went to look at the dead squirrel and found out it was the neighbor's chihuahua. FML
Today, I took my dog to the park. While chatting with another dog owner, my dog managed to steal their sandwich and ran off with it. I had to chase my sandwich-thieving dog through the entire park. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when, as usual, he did his business in the grass and stepped off to the side. I squatted and reached for the bag when my dog spotted another canine. He lunged forward in excitement and I landed face forward in the feces. FML
Today, I was walking my dogs when I noticed one of them had found something, and was eating it. After my command to "drop it" went unheeded, I took it upon myself to scoop it out of her mouth with my finger. After getting it all over my hand, I realized it was a piece of another dog's poop. FML
Today, I realized that my dog is an evil genius. As I sat down to have a snack, he barked as if he saw someone outside. I went to check it out, but nobody was there. When I returned, I found my dog on the table finishing off my bacon sandwich. FML

I bet the owner didn't see that coming.

A proper seeing eye dog should actually never accept treats from strangers.

While you may not have known that the dog was a special needs dog and that the owner was blind, you should never feed another person's dog without permission unless you really know the person and their pet. Aside from the fact that it is kind of rude, there are many other reasons for this.

Exactly. My sister's dog is allergic to preservatives, so can only be given fresh meat, fruit and veggies. If she gets into something she isn't supposed to, she breaks out in a rash, then starts losing her hair.

That is surprising as here in the UK, they train them so that their innate behaviours (such as eating some meat that had been thrown to them), become inert unless they are from the owner/trainer.

That's how it's suppose to be with all service dogs really. This one seems poorly trained. Or maybe still a puppy in training.

Damn, try to explain that without comung off as a complete asshole. "Sorry man, I didn't see that your dog was a seeing eye dog..."

you NEVER give an animal that doesn't belong to you food without asking the owner first

First of all, you don't throw food to someone else's dog unless you ask first. Some dogs have allergies or medical conditions, some are still in training, and some owners don't like strangers feeding their dogs. Second, a seeing-eye dog wears a special harness with a handle on it. Most also wear a "cape" that says "guide dog" or "service dog" on it. While the dog may not have been properly trained to ignore food, it's still your fault for throwing sausage at it. :|

Why are people so ******* dumb when it comes to other people's dogs? You don't give other people's animals food without permission. They could have allergies. Also service dogs wear a vest. So you didn't notice?????? I hope that blind guy beat the **** out of you.

You should have offered your sausage to the blind guy first, and if he didn't want it, give it to the dog. Crazy shit happens in parks.

That dog is not very well trained if it went after a sausage while working. And whether or not it was a working dog you should have never given the dog anything. Its not yours, you don't know anything about it and what the owner allows it or not. YDI and much more for your assumptions.

So now we know it was you who let the dogs out.... Kidding aside, like everyone else says asking first or making better observations would save you the trouble.
