California Man Defends Leaving Dog off Leash in Public Park To Pee on People: ‘My Dog Only Pees on B**thes’

A man in California visited the park with his dog and refused to put it on a leash, despite being repeatedly warned to restrain it. Instead, he defended his actions, saying that his dog is trained. A disgruntled citizen in Orange County shared a video of the man in question on Reddit. The public park was crowded, and he was surrounded by several other people sitting and walking around with their children and pets. The poster was attending her friend’s birthday in the park and was surrounded by her friend’s grandparents, children, and several other relatives. 

From the context given in the caption, the man was causing a scene by leaving his dog unleashed. The dog then peed on the poster’s friend’s aunt, and instead of apologizing, its owner said, “My dog only pees on b*tches.” He then reiterated that his dog was not a threat but was only defending him because it was trained to “protect.” 

Several other people in the park began asking the dog owner to go home if he wouldn’t restrain his dog. “Can you just go home!?… You need to go.”

Eventually, the police were called to the scene. However, when they arrived, they did nothing to de-escalate the situation, but said that the people who called them were being “too emotional.” Further emboldened by the cops, the man refused to leave but instead, stayed on with his dog even after the police left. 

The dog owner’s actions caused outrage online, with several people calling him an attention seeker. “Sounds like this is the only way he can get attention. Sad really,” one user wrote. “The guy is the definition of cringe,” another user added. 

One user who was at the park when the incident occurred wrote that he saw the dog owner “purposefully let his dog attack the other family’s dog that was on a leash.” Rather than apologize for his actions, he said that he was giving them “free training.”

Another user commented, “The guy is an idiot. Your dog can be near a human in intelligence and it doesn’t matter. Leash laws exist, and they must be followed. Guys like this run when their dog bites someone, and no matter how well trained the dog is, stuff can always happen.” 

In the same vein, another user added, “I don’t understand the ‘flex’ of having a dog off leash because they are ‘well trained.’ Especially at a place like Salt Creek with so many people, kids, and other dogs around. Get over yourself, bootleg Cesar Milan.”

One user wrote that the dog was actually well-behaved. However, the problem lies with its owner because he “can’t be trained on common sense in a public area.”
