FRIGHTENING ENCOUNTER by sangwann

FRIGHTENING ENCOUNTER

Three or four weeks ago I decided to take Snuggles for a walk along the Victoria Lines in the Għargħur area. I was hoping it to be a lovely day for Snugs as Max and I had taken him on the same walk some weeks previously and he enjoyed it immensely. This time as soon as we started our trek, this guy with his big ‘kite’ suddenly appeared from the top of the hill above us and glided barely three storeys above my head. The wing span of the ‘kite’ was at least 20 metres wide. Snuggles, who gets frightened even if a tree branch flutters with the wind was so terrified that he went mad and it was quite an effort to control him. We continued on our walk but he only relaxed when we arrived back at the car and he got inside.
Took these shots with my mobile while Snuggles was pulling away like hell.
Thank you very much for looking, for your comments and for the fav;s.
A fabulous collage of your amazing experience. What a beautiful view you had, hope you could still enjoy it.

Gosh, what a shock! You don't expect that to happen, do you? Super shots of him though. Hope Snuggles forgot about it promptly.

Poor snugs. He won't want to walk there again.

Oh my, that does look like fun! I’m sorry your pup was scared. Depending on how big he is, your arms could be quite sore from his tugging and pulling on his leash.

A lovely collage. I'm still not sure why people throw themselves off hills like that!

I do hope Snuggles is recovered. Not really the flyers fault, an unfortunate coincidence of timing.

That sight would be enough to frighten a small animal….that big thing with wings, they would think it was after them & come swooping down!

Presumably the kiter had no idea of the scare he caused! Shame, I love seeing those bold souls flying about. Fab collage.
