Smoke - N - Blues: Taco Attacked In Machado Plaza
5/22/2010
May 21st After a good nights sleep we walked down a couple of blocks to have breakfast Today is a walking stroll sight seeing day We walked to Plaza Machado We had the fur kids with us on leash Two dogs a black one and a white one came running out of a casita (house).
The black one attacked Taco Russ took his walking stick and started to hit the dog to get him off of Taco, mean while I could see that the black dog only cared about attacking Taco so I reached down with my left hand and grabbed the black dog and flung him off Taco.
While I was grabbing the dog Russ kept hitting the dog, what Russ did not know was that he was hitting my hand and not the dog, because he was in rapid fire In my right hand I had Lucy dangling by the neck to keep her from the dog fight.
After I flung the dog off Taco the owners came quickly to the door yelling for their dogs I told them that they need to keep their dogs on a leash and he said "No habla Ingles", which translates to "I don't speak Spanish".
Taco was not injured and my hand took a good walking stick beating, a nice size goose egg on itOn the corner of the plaza is a restaurant where we were headed to have a coke I first asked for ice first and then a coke.
While we sitting having a coke the waiter said that those same dogs that attacked Taco have attacked children.
