Page 4 | to be alarmed that more and more places are allowing dogs?

Absolutely @Crikeyohreilly . It's like all that dog shit on the pavements and bags of shit hanging up in woodlands. Doesn't exist.

Agreed. This thread is a bunch of anti dog people fabricating stories to fit their narrative because - shock horror dogs being around is barely an inconvenience!

It’s the way every dog thread goes. Apparently it’s impossible to have a picnic without it being raided by a dog. I’m about to enter my eighth decade and have never seen it happen.

Didn't happen and if you don't know, dogs don't randomly do a full body shake , they have to be wet to do it .
This thread is full of random bullshit about dogs, it's like a competition to see who can tell the tallest tales , I have difficulty believing most of these posts are from adults .

We get it, lots of people don't like dogs on mn.
Real life is like a different world 🙄

Nobody likes the small happy aggressive ones

I am allergic to dogs, I don’t want to be sneezing through my meal.

A vast amount of posts on MN is made up bullshit , and a lot of these posts are tall stories .

True but I think this one probably did happen as we used to have a dog that did this.

Oh yes they do.
Our English setter used to do this regularly.

Why do posters persist in not believing that this probably did happen?

ArmWrestlingWithChasNDave · 29/04/2023 01:38

This happened and thankfully I wasn’t a nearby table. But it was completely gross! And nobody seemed to bother… like wtf.

Honey you're meant to make your ridiculous story MORE plausible, not even more transparently bullshit to everybody with a brain cell.

wildinthecountry · 29/04/2023 01:19

OK maybe if they've been in bed all night and their sorting out their fur ,dogs don't randomly shake like that, this thread is full of random made up bullshit, probably from children .

BSB30 · 29/04/2023 01:12

@wildinthecountry My dog always does full body shakes, usually when she wakes up. She's definitely not wet when she does it.

I was in my local cafe and a huge (well behaved) dog (Beethoven like) was at a nearby table. The dog shook itself in that way dogs usually do, and slabbers from its mouth went all over the nearby tables and into peoples food. It put me off my own food and we left.

for me, dogs are lovely but should not be where people are eating for this very reason.

Whenever people post about an unusual personal experience which I did not witness, I am going to start posting ‘that didn’t happen’.

Or not. Because I am not stupid.

I think I will as well.

Thanks for your input 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So a dog doesn’t slabber 🤔 and it wasn’t in the cafe 😂😂 sure !!

The dog v children debate is hilarious! Let’s just invite the rodents and pests in to dine in with us too. Cos children are the same as animals 🤯 sure thing.

@Lockheart Why would we hear about it though? Unless you were there when it happened, unlikely to find out about it.

People love a moan and a good chance at a compo claim so I’m sure we’d hear about it on a thread on here or next to a sad looking selfie in the daily fail!

How do you know @Crikeyohreilly? Were you there?

I’m sure there would have been a dedicated thread to said incident if it had occurred.

I love dogs but I don't think they should be allowed everywhere especially eating places. We went to a really nice restaurant recently and someone had there dog there who was really annoying walking around the table and then eventually pissed in the middle of 3 other tables. All these people asked to be moved, and because it was full they left! So they lost out to 3 tables all because of bloody stupid dogs everywhere.

They didn’t lose out on 3 tables because of “bloody stupid dogs everywhere” It was one dog who by the sounds of it had a very irresponsible owner. Let’s not blame dogs being everywhere for the act of one owner and their dog. Unfortunately as there is no licence to own a dog not everyone is attentive and responsible but not all dogs and their owners are like this.

Just went to Wilko recently who had a sign up saying all dogs welcome. Went to a bistro and they allowed dogs too. Had lunch listening to small yappy dogs.

Since when did it become acceptable to allow dogs into shops and food places?

The fact you are ‘alarmed’ seems like an overreaction tbh. We are talking about people with dogs not AK-47’s. Let’s also be entirely honest as well the ratio of dogs to humans is still pretty favourable - it’s not like places are overrun with them like a cockroach infestation.

I do agree that happy dogs are a nuisance but not all dogs are like this. Personally I find happy kids as infuriating but I’m not alarmed that they are also allowed within my space. It is the way of the world. This space is for all of us to use whether we like it or not try not to be too alarmed by that it’s not good for one’s stress levels!

I was in a pub/restaurant. Dog pissed next to me. Landlady picked a bartowel up and came and rubbed the floor with it. She then dumped the dog pee towel at the end of the bar and walked off for any bar staff to use.
