Miserable little animal was asking for it. Every damn day he'd come racing out at me, barking his psyvhotic little doggie head off, snapping at my ankles and doing everything in his power to express his hostility. One day after such an encounter, on my way back home I spotted him in his yard, engrossed in a pile of leaves, with his back to me. Figuring that this was the only chance I'd ever get, I sprinted a good fifty yards, caught him completely off guard, and it was payback time. I've never heard a noise like that come out of an animal before or since.
