There are plenty of dumb-ass pet owners out there. I tie her to a tree or a fire hydrant. She barks at anyone coming near her. She wouldn't go willingly or without a fight. She's a small rescue that had been abused. She makes a lot of noise when she's frightened, so she would make quite a scene if someone tried to take her.

I wouldn't do that with our previous dogs because they were too friendly.
