to ask for my Hunter Wellies replaced?

[islanderin]

farmer neighbour's dog has been "after" my bitch in season. I don't let out her alone when she's this way. Twice the neighbour's dog has come baying at our door. The first night he ate the leather saddle off our rocking horse at the front door, but last night because it was so late, and wet, I let him in, gave him a bath and dried him, put him back outside. This morning, he had eaten a big chunk of both my wellies which were outside. His owner says he's been known to do that and offered to pay- but is not known to pay and even on Ebay they are expensive wellies, 45~+ ..AIBU for asking for replacements? TYou.

I'm imagining one of those beautiful heirloom rocking horses and it sounds wonderfully decadent to keep it on a porch , I'd take him up on the offer but not expect it to come to anything though maybe he will give you some money toward replacements! Can you get a boot box for the porch? If such a thing exists!

Would you be happy to see her die of Pyometra? You're risking your dogs life for no reason.

Farm dogs are farm dogs, far less likely to be neutered as they'll probably be bred for the next generation. You can't control that but you can control if your bitch attracts them or not.

Wtf?

You’re batshit!

I suppose. Or he get his dogs balls cut off?? Good for the goose, non?

Aside from the fact that people who put ‘non’ at the end of their sentences are total knobs, you can’t control what he does with his dog but you can control what you do with yours.

Anyway. General rule, if someone or something is sniffing around to get his rocks off, don’t bring him in for a bath. 🤷🏻‍♀️

island I think Reaper may have been referring to the increased risk of uterine cancer?

@geekone I love you. @CitadelsofScience if you like I'll give one of the hated boots to you to chew too? @GPatz voice of wisdom. thanks. xo

Yes not just the wine, the spirits have been hit hard too. It all sounds like a bad dream.

Why not just have your bitch spayed?? You can blame the poor dog in getting excited and frustrated?? I'm assuming you're not a breeder so why not just 'fix' the problem or better still get both dogs done ( have a word with your neighbour then you have TWO happy dogs?

BU but your lovely dog should have a non-accessible visitors shelf.

So you have a randy dog a cold shower? And it chewed your boots?

I think the dog have his own punishment - tough

Get your bitch spayed - it'll make your life easier and it's better for her long-term health as well.

Sell the now saddle-less rocking horse and buy yourself some new Hunters for the porch?

No thanks island I can't abide silly branded wellies that aren't fit for purpose but ta for the offer.

May I suggest a strong coffee and some fresh air because your posts are sounding more bonkers each time.

Thanks op! She's a small one so should be no bother for you.

Can I be the first to ask for pictures?
Specifically of the Rocking Horse and the Bathed Dog?

I don't think this is such a weird post, for what it's worth.
When I lived in a more communal place, my roaming dog would occasionally eat my neighbours flip flops. Embarrassing, and I replaced them generously each time. By about the 3rd time, I suggested they put them on a high shelf.
With your pricey wellies, I see how it's hard to actually ask for the money. The dog's owner would ideally offer it straight away. If I were you, is probably ask for replacement and then keep the inside. Now I miss my communal home, just thinking about it

No normal farmer would wear Hunters anyhow, they're for city or wannabee cuntry folk

Nobody that's a proper rural person has Hunters

Don’t ask for money!
Buy a pair of Dunlop wellies !
Don’t bring randy dogs into your house !

I don't understand why everyone is telling op to get her dog done, why can't the male have his balls off?

Also " Are you ok? Because you really don’t sound like you’re at all well " made me lol
