[Jespah]

Our dog (St. Bernard) was maced through our fence when we were kids by our mailman. We lived in a city where they had alleys for garbage truck pick-ups, etc. Our dog loved to walk beside people on her side of the fence and then let out a huge "woof" to scare the heck out of them - there was no way should would or could have harmed them through the fence. Unfortunately, the mailman had a dark beard and our dog forever connected any man with a beard with the incident and we had to be very cautious around men with beards, as she would lunge at them. That was a 150 lb. dog - so one idiot put lots of other innocent people at risk for his stupid act. She never did attack or hurt anyone in her lifetime, but we were alway wary.
