Default Beware of Dog!!!

This would fall under the topic of "Would you believe this happened to my car" if we had such a thing.

Thank goodness I invested in the Honda car cover for my S2K, I'm not religious about putting it on but I may be for now on...

Our neighbor's dog, a very friendly but ferocious-looking black pit bull, often spends time over here because her humans apparently just leave her out to guard their place, four or five days at a time. So today it was raining very hard, and the garage door was open at our place so she could find some shelter from the storm. My woman and I had gone in the house to do various things, and when I returned to the garage a few minutes later, I found the dog walking around on my S2000! I couldn't get mad at her, she's such a sweetie, and after I shooed her off the car and removed the cover, I was relieved to see she hadn't done any damage, basically thanks to the cover being in place.

People with canines beware, this could happen to you!

Ouch, I can't imagine what my bull terrier would do to my hood, with or without a car cover. She's about 45lbs.

They are great dogs though. Thoroughly misunderstood and don't deserve the reputation they have.

I couldn't agree more- The only pit bulls I've ever met have been very friendly to both humans and other dogs, methinks the reputation they have is caused by people that train them to be ill-tempered.

This dog is about 60 lbs. by the way, I'm sure the aluminum hood was flexing under her weight, but as I said no damage.
