Bike-hater

Tanya, off her leash for a split second today outside the door, took off after a young girl on her bicycle, growling and barking. The poor girl screamed. I yelled, "Just keep riding!" as I ran after Tanya, clapping my hands at her (which usually startles her enough to settle her down). Once the girl saw Tanya, she stopped shrieking.

Tanya turned around at the edge of our property, the hair on her back still raised, but wagging her tail and head hanging apologetically.

Now this poor girl will have Chihuahua trauma for the rest of her life.
