Dogs have no concept of their size.
This is true.
I've seen a toy dachshund back a mastiff down.
A yorkie just go after a dog 10 times his size.
They just don't get it.
The yorkie would tear to shreds ANYTHING on wheels.
If he got off leash.
Bike, garbage truck, dump truck, doesn't matter.
RABID at anything on wheels.

(37,648 posts)10. That is the BEST post I've read in ages! TOO funny! And so true.
I have two dogs and have had others. They DO act like that. They eat anything disgusting, but sniff at their bowls and look at me questioningly when I give them something other than their usual din-din. "What's THIS crap?" they say. Yes, they really say that. With their eyes.
