Shitty Service Dog Alert
So I am walking downtown yesterday to my office on 15th and Walnut. I am standing on the corner waiting for the light to change to cross. I see this blind lady and her service dog walking on the street towards me. Next thing you know, this lady does not stop at the light and is led right out into the middle of traffic by her dog. Her whole fucking life flashed before my eyes and I screamed at the top of my lungs while cars came screeching to a halt like two centimeters from killing both her and her dog. I didn’t know what to do. I was in shock for like 5 minutes I stood staring into space. Like what the fuck. What do you do in this situation? Well, I did nothing because I was scared shitless, frozen on the corner. Do you report this to someone? This poor lady’s dog is going to kill her. And aren’t blind people supposed to have like an extreme sense of hearing? What the hell was she thinking when the cars came screeching and my piercing scream surrounded her? These dogs need signs like the ‘how’s my driving’ but instead maybe ‘how’s my leading?’ In this case, dog shoulda been FIRED. I cannot stop thinking about this. I felt somewhat responsible for not doing anything. I really hope I am not reading about this lady’s death in the future.
