Barking dog

I just went to a friend's house, I caught a bus. The bus stop is on one side of a park, my friend's house is on the other. There's an alleyway from the bus stop into the park and then a path through the park itself.

I walked into the alleyway and a guy had a dog on a lead. (It had just just dumped on the path). It's one of those black square faced ones you see on shortbread tins. It barked really loudly and sharply at me which made me start and I shouted "Christ!" and jumped back. The guy gave me a filthy look.

I saw another dog on a lead further up, absolutely fine.

Why do some dog owners have a sense of entitlement on behalf of their dogs?

Dog on lead barked at you. Is that it? I don't understand the problem?

Gosh what a long post with lots of detail for such a non event. I almost thought you'd posted too soon!

Dog owner probably thought you were a drama llama. Which I agree with tbh.

So it was on the lead and just barked at you?

You're being ridiculous 😂

Sense of entitlement ???!!!!

How embarrassing

Sometimes dogs do bark, the eejit woman next door to me keeps parading her dog in front of my window - on my grass which makes my dog bark and he’s sodding loud and it’s pissing me off. The man is obviously wondering why you said Christ perhaps not obvious that the dog made you jump or thought you were being a bit dramatic who knows but ignore it i don’t think it’s entitlement I mean It barked it didn’t mount you

Dogs sometimes bark at people. And what?

wobblyweasel · 18/03/2023 18:19

Oh dear, a dog on a lead barked at you loudly. What exactly is your problem with it?
