Today, I was walking down the street when a police officer started walking behind me with his dog. I sped up and tried to cross the road. He took this as suspicious and got the dog to take me to the floor. I've been afraid of dogs since I was 5. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was threatened with arrest for refusing to accept a citation for having a dog off leash in a park. It wasn’t my fucking dog! It was a very friendly stray that started following me on my morning walk. I tried to explain myself but the dog wouldn’t leave my side or stop barking at the cop. FML
Today, knowing very well that I need to be more active, I went for a walk. It quickly turned into a sprint when I was attacked and chased by a dog. FML
Today, I got mugged while walking my dog. He seemed to be OK with it. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when a lady approached me, commented how beautiful she was, and asked to pet her. I obliged and next thing I knew I was pushed to the ground and maced. She made off with my dog. The police is unable to locate them. FML
Today, I took my dog for a walk. He became friendly with another dog, and I reached down to pet them both. Suddenly, an old woman ran up to me and whacked me with her cane repeatedly. Apparently, her previous dog had been kidnapped by a woman who looked a lot like me. FML
Today, I got pulled over by the cops for swerving a lot while driving. I tried to explain that my dog bit the back of my neck, but as soon as I opened my door to show him the bite marks and the dog, he ran out of the car. I still can't find him. FML
Today, I went for a walk. I was repeatedly barked at, and almost attacked, by nearly a dozen dogs. I have cynophobia from being nearly killed by violent untrained dogs on several occasions, so just hearing a dog bark gives me severe heart palpitations. I'm not kidding when I say I almost had a heart attack. FML
Today, I came home on crutches. My dog was immediately afraid of them, and came running towards me, growling and barking. She ran right into me, knocking me over. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when I tripped on the leash, dropping his treat bag. He snatched one, looked at me, and ran full speed in the opposite direction. I had to chase him for three blocks, yelling his name. He thought it was a new game. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when another dog barked at him. My dog ran, pulling me with him. I fell to the ground in pain, with my hand still holding the leash. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Yes, I would've preferred it if was something more gentle that had taken me down as well. Maybe a turtle perhaps? Or a sloth?

Everyone is afraid of dogs if some wild dog comes up to you and tries to rip out your throat you'll be scared. My little rant over FYL op I'm trying to become a cop I'll try not to be a douchie one but no promises. ;p

I call shennanagins. I work with an animal hospital that treats protection and police dogs, and this has a less than .01% chance of happening >.> The handlers would never let anything like this happen because of the potential for a law suit and losing their job. Not worth the risk.

law suit

**** the police. For those of you saying that the OP shouldn't have acted suspicious, please keep in mind that he was WALKING AWAY from the cop. The cop should have given him a warning first. To sic a dog on someone who is fleeing without giving a verbal order to stop first is a completely unnecessary show of force. I'm not British, but I've heard that the UK is becoming a police state. The government took away the peoples' guns, they use CCTV to spy on their own citizens... I feel sorry for all the good people who live there.

rofl yeah, cause all British people had access to assault rifles just 20, 40, 60 years ago, right? learn some history. oh, and next time you go begging to the cops for help, I hope you get yourself a nice ****-off kick up the ass, dipshit.

I would never beg the cops for help. That's not their job. Their job is to investigate crimes. They're not obligated to be bodyguards for citizens. And assault rifles are military weapons, so yeah, of course British civilians never owned them. I'm not sure what your point is, bro.

i dont think that is 'fleeing'. then person couldve looked at the time and realized they were late to work or to meey a friend so they sped up. to make the dog take the person to the floor is a little extreme.
