Not hurting too bad from my first yoga sesh.  Got out and did 10 miles on BST above the U, while starting my add on up red butte canyon a large unleashed dog started loping at me so I stopped.  When it looked like the owner had it under control I continued on my run, but the dog turned around and started charging and jumped on me.  I start yelling at the owner and she calls me an idiot for "running away" from the dog.  Technically yes, but more I was just continuing on my merry way.  I yelled at her about proper leash use, which she was holding in her hand in front of her open liftgate as she prepared to leave.  As she continued to yell at me as I continued on my way I may have called her a dumb female dog.  I just don't understand how people still don't understand how to properly control a dog, it's not the dogs fault it behaves a dog it's the responsibility of the owner to have it under control at all times for everyone's safety.

And no I didn't know that your dog was friendly as it charged at me.

she sounds like a fun lady, with a dog to match.

It's amazing how people are so unapologetic. I have a dog incident at least once a month and it usually involves a good deal of swearing.
