What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

I'm back on my BS 🤪@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 106 points –

The owner kind of makes a weak attempt to seem like they're trying, but if I weren't there, they wouldn't intervene at all. I'm asking because I want to make sure that I don't over react next time.

My goodness me.

"Talk to all the other people at the park and turn them against one other person in order to avoid an awkward conversation with said person".

If someone at the park told me to avoid some other person because their dog is a humper I world tell them to grow up.

I'm assuming OP has already asked the problem owner to stop and they are refusing to control their dog properly. Obviously talking to them comes first.

You could take photos of the dog humping your dog and make posters & flyers warning everyone.

Better yet, you could post to your local "mother's chat" Facebook group and let them resolve it
