Pushed or Kicked at Deaf Dog? That is OKAY?

Sam, the Deaf Dog. 

Pushed or Kicked are not OKAY!

I want to share with you how I felt about the situation that Sam is doing nothing wrong, so innocent and trusted and family dog. (my fault for unleashed my dog, but it was tonight, quietly and peace and empty on the road around...)

Yesterday around 6:45pm Friday night, I felt so trust with my deaf dog without a leashed, Sam to walked with me out tonight as I thought it would not need to be leashed... So Whitty, another dog that my mother's dog, I babysit her since a year and half because her apartment don't allowed the pet in Maryland. So I dont mind about Whitty. So I concerned with Whitty to be leashed and walk with me out tonight. 

Next block, on Grant St and 24th, I walked with Sam, he just snuffed on grass, but an owner from 24th/Grant house have two idiot large dogs barked, barked at Sam.

Sam was look at them keeping barking. Sam never barked, JUST deaf. I poke Sam to turn the direct, my point finger direct out walk away, Sam followed me away. That two large dogs still BARKS still, I think that owner was annoyed what his dogs barking badly. Sound like it's stingy guy. 

We move on walk, still but Sam still snuffing (not yet to poop or pee) on front house on grass, I saw an owner kicked or pushed my deaf dog- Sam. I can see that he was trying to scare by his voice scream. I told him in first place at the fence, he's deaf. He didn't take my word. 

He pushed him off his grass. I saw it all by kicked. 

Sam was freaked out and started fearfully again. Sam was hurting with fearfully. Sam seem felt abused again. 

I called police. I wrote a note and pen with my explained happened. Policewoman said will follow up with Animal Control next day. 

Animal Control officer came and stopped by and chat with me what happened. She wants to see Sam who he is, to see if he is deaf. 

I called Sam to come, he saw the officer, Sam was freaked out and looked at me with his fears as thought he can hurt again. he look freaky afraid.  

the Animal control officer realized. And then officer came to 24th/Grant St and talked with this guy. The officer said that he pushed this deaf dog, not kicked him. And, he realized that my dog is deaf, and sound not care about it, with no concerned. 

I told the officer that both "pushed or kicked" are same harmfully. The officer agreed with me. That I would apply to charged him for hurt my deaf dog. But the officer told me that guy will summoned in the court to against me for not use a leash on Sam. IF I applying to charges to against him.

I dropped out about the charges, my fault for not put a leash on him, but one thing I told the officer... very important to feedback: I asked for an apology for hurting my deaf dog. I will say to him that I would forgivable him.

Look like he won't. 

What do I do about it?
