So at park today with dd (3) and small dog.
While we are there I notice two women with 3 or 4 dogs, one of them a huge alsation.
As we are leaving the alsation begins to chase my dog around and my dog (who is tiny) runs out of the park, alsation in hot pursuit. Alasation not responding to owners ineffectually calling him from other side of park. I have hold of dd so cannot get to my dog or big nasty dog. My dog runs out into road in panic and big dog follows just as a van turns in and nearly runs both dogs over. I apologise to van driver profusely, chuck dd in car and grab my dog heart pounding at the close shave for both dogs.
So I get in my car thinking "thank goodness that ended ok" not even thinking of blaming owners. Next thing I know they are at side of car asking me to wind window down, I do so thinking they have come to apologise, quite unnecessary, dogs are dogs etc. But no, they have come to bollock me for not standing still with my scared dd and terrified tiny little dog, while their huge alsation jumps around us all. Apparently it is all my fault that their dog chased my dog out of the park, I am apparently "a stupid woman trying to get someone else's dog killed!" That is not all that was said but trying to keep this short.
So tell me who is being unreasonable here? I honestly will go with MN judgment.
