Uno

Why would someone start spinning their dog around on the end of its lead when it attacked another [bigger] dog? Why not just pick up their dog? Imagine the scenario: man with vicious tiny dog starts to whirl it around in mid air in an attempt to levitate it above the bigger aggrieved dog. Obviously the big dog is going to be whipped up into a frenzy and jump up and grab the little one? Not a good moment, especially when the man decided to kick the bigger dog [Uno], missed and landed on the floor with his dog on top of him and Uno still attached.
