Have had issues with them in the past

They are elderly, with two large breed dogs (think Great Danes?). They cannot control them. Honestly the amount of times I have seen them nearly pull them over in the street/simply pull out of their grasp and go bouncing off and jumping all over people is untrue.

Was walking back from the shop and saw them coming from a distance so I stepped to the side into another neighbours driveway and next thing I know- one of them had pulled out of its owners grasp and came bounding over and knocked DD (who is just about getting confident with her toddling) over.

It was over in seconds- by the time I put the break on the pram (was stood on a slopes drive so it would of ran off into the road) and went to grab DD she was already on the floor the dog barking at her- so I kicked it to get it away, and it bit my leg.

I was furious. Owner very embarrassed an apologetic but I’ve said enough is enough and I would be contacting the police and the RSPCA.

Heaven forbid it bounded on the pram and just decided to bite my 2 week old. It would of taken her head off no doubt.

V shaken and waiting for DH to get home to call the police and RSPCA.

I’ve also messaged his daughter on Facebook

Ah, PengAly. The poster who thinks it’s OK to use laughing emojis for a story about a dead child.

I’m sorry you missed me while I was doing other things.

Sure, if you stop telling lies.

Are you appearing under any other names on this thread

No. Definately not. But there's nothing stopping you Checking with MNHQ. Please do

Second, the special needs bit you have just made up. Straightforwardly, that’s a fib by you.
Third, you know perfectly well you said “I much prefer dogs to people”. It’s still there. Look at it. That’s a second fib. As formehaving a “tirade”...that’s a special doggie owners joke, right

I think it's time you put the wine down now. You make no sense, whatsoever. The posts are there for everyone to see, except yours, that was removed because it was offensive!

Well if the law would be that any dog that bites for any reason will be put down then maybe the owners will finally take responsibility for their actions. It's entirely the owners fault, they have to keep it on a lead if it doesn't have good recall. They shoulfn't be letting a dog loose thst they don't control. The public does not have to learn how to behave around dogs, they should assume that they are safe at all times.

The straw grasping and stupidity of some dog owners in this thread is hilarious. But they will never see it. Very sad.

PengAly · 02/02/2019 07:53

Alright I'm done. Hiding this thread now

PorkPatrol · 02/02/2019 08:23

Well it’s common sense that if the dog was attacking they’d have done more than knock the child over. It was the op who attacked the dog and escalated the situation and received a nip (pretty restrained for an apparently aggressive huge dog who’s just been kicked).
