Yes, Onslow is my present Samoyed. All dogs survived! Onslow was attacked by both since he is very macho-alpha (or as we say, the lead dog in the sled team). But he is well trained, & for good measure wears an obedience collar. He also has great hair armor. The Pittie owner shook it off, the Rottie owner, not as well.
I'm glad you know your horse; if you don't know your animal, you are asking for trouble! They can almost be as bad as hominids....

PS: My sister had a horse; I couldn't even have a go-kart....
