Just been for a walk to the shop and then along by the sea towards home.

I bought some shopping, and had opened a large packet of crisps for me and ds3 to share as we were hungry. Bag in the shopping basket under out buggy.

Parked the buggy by the prom and went down to sea with ds3 very briefly, while ds1 near buggy (he is 12). Some people go by him with loads of dogs.
I swap with ds1 who goes down to the sea with toddler while I return to buggy to get something, and I reach into the crisps and find they are rather wet [bleeee]

I realise this was likely a dog - ask ds1 when he returns and he confirms a dog had stuck its face into the crisps.

Am I unreasonable in wanting dog owners to keep their blimming dogs' noses out of other people's pushchairs, shopping, picnics and anything else a dog is liable to try and eat from?

I've had to ditch the whole bag now and I was enjoying those Sad.

Why are making a fuss about dog.
When you were happy to let flies bees and birds have a go at your open food.

I'm not happy to let flies bees and birds have a go at my food.

I have this beautiful mental image now of our buggy surrounded by legions of lickle pretty bluebirds and robins, hopping bunnies, small deer, a buzzing bee or two and HUNDREDS of huge fuck off bluebottles all trying to eat my crisps.

But it really wasn't like that.
