Bloody dogs and their stupid selfish owners.

[pinkthechaffinch]

We live in Dorset, and I don't really care too much if this thread is identifying.

Ds is really into nature and is very good at spotting newts, grass snakes etc.

We went to Thorncombe Woods the other day, where there is a lovely pond with tons of wild swamp life. It's always quite busy up there, loads of dog shit as soon as you come out of the car park, but it's really lovely once you walk on a bit.

Anyway, DS all excited about planned nature observation. but YET again, it's ruined because of bloody great dogs splashing about in the pool, and then shaking themselves over me and my kids, whilst their stupid owners sit and stare at them.

Grrrr

And there are numerous signs asking dog owners to keep their beasts on leads.

You're not at all realistic.

You're also not "sure" that other countries have laws that dogs must be kept on the leads "at all times" are you?

Get back to your daily mail.

I had to read down to see why you were so pissed off at the nature comment - I can understand that your perspective is totally skewed by a horrific event with your own child

I think in your position I would also be a dog / dog-owner hater

so I'm sorry

but I still think the OP is unreasonable

What do you and animation do when your children ask to go to the seaside?

Panic and say "no" as there are seagulls? They're big and steal your chips.

What about the lakes? You know that swans can break a man's arm.

By "you" i mean tiredmum

pmsl minimu [big thumbs up]. I have a dog and children and whilst I worry about some dangerous dogs running around, I do believe there is dangerous children around too! (mostly big ones but still someones children).superchick I hate yobs but they are still around hanging out in their gangs, terrorising people and attacking people. Maybe they should be on leads?

aint you the funny one common, i dont actually read the daily mail (sorry to burst your bubble)

i am realistic as france do have the law, so it is possible.

so go back to your joke book

And swan and seagulls dont savagely attack

what kinda argument is that??

That isn't the law in France at all! Dogs do not have to be kept on the lead at all times at all.

I love your version of realistic.

You are an idiot.

That isn't true actually Tiredmumno1 it only relates to certain breeds, we have similar laws here but different breeds.

To insist on all dogs being leashed in public is insanity and would very likely see a huge rise in dog attacks.

Seagulls do attack savagely here

a goose nipped DS's finger a while ago to take some bread from his hand.

Maybe all birds should be tethered?

Namecalling again eh,

well you common are a twunt, at least i was corrected by another poster, and i got half the law right.

who the hell are you anyway

Curlymama we have exactly the same problem. Seems lots of people don't know how to act.

"I got half the law right". Ha! Idiot.

common you are like a dog with a bone

Oh, now that's just hurtful.

"I got half the law right"! LOL! Idiot!

At least i dont chase bones

This gets better. Lol!

You know "half" the law, so in fact you don't know the law. So you say that i'm a dog. Genius.

Lol! Idiot!

yet another silly dog-hating thread.

hmm<

Ponders the benefits of joining the current thread about FF vs BF again..

Oh common come on i was kiddin

so you wanna make up?

edgar you could also try private v state education threads. They're full of equally calm, rational people... no raging marxists at -all--

superchick.....i started reading your post at the bit where is says smelly, dribbling shitting beasts......i thought you were writing about children lol

YANBU - I don't like dogs in fact I do everything I can to avoid them and I hate their bloody selfish owners who think everyone should love their mutts as much as they do. My parents live next door to a dog obsessed family they have loads of them, they are always in the garden and everytime, we open the back door, without fail they start barking non stop until we go back in. My children find it really intimidating as do I, so we just don't go out there anymore.

partyhats......perhaps its the noise of your children that sets em off.......just a thought!
