Warning to other dog owners!!!! (Erdington canal)

[johnmck]

In my experiance, people are the problem and not the Dog.....

 

I have a Springer Spaniel, which by nature is inquisiative, especially if food is involved.

 

If he was anything but a good natured and approachable animal he would be muzzled and on a lead.

 

I know that at All times he will be friendly, but appreciate others do not appreciate this. So its lead off untill a potential problem arises, and this is invariably not a dog, but a human....

 

Above all, why get into a confrontation in any form. Life is far too short.

 

Peace People and enjoy the diversity of situations, not the negatives.

 

A community involves people who care for each other, confrontation is a negative in all its forms.

Dogs are dogs, expecting them to exhibit the same level of control as us is silly, a stern shout of 'no' or any other negative response will, usually, deter them. If not, a swift strike to the nose will cause them to back off. This is your space, defend it, as a dog would, they understand this.

Or to run from them

Or to run from them

No you should always back, slowly, away, from women, never showing fear and never breaking eye contact.

 

It's the same for dogs and cows, too!

[Naughty Cal]

Or just not move

I tried lying down and playing dead but it just made it easier for her to kick me.

The cow or the wive?

[fatboy]

Just whisper the name "McDonalds" in their ear then they tend to be the ones backing away

[stort_mark]

No. It ought to be self-evident to anybody with two brain cells to rub together that it is not acceptable to allow your dog to intrude into other people's space. Trying to make conversation with somebody who lacks the wit to understand that without explanation is a waste of my time.

 

No, I'm not the toughest man in the village. I don't "do" violence, ever. I am, however, no 7-stone weakling. If somebody else wishes to solve something with violence, I'm not going to run away from them.

 

Not the first time you've spouted about the brains of others being somewhat inferior to yours.

 

Waiting now for you to require other party to "relax" or "chill out" and claim that they are being "bilious" (A suggestion levelled at others who happened to disagree with you a few months back. Ha ha! Loving it

If someone can't understand the simple concept that it is not acceptable to permit your dog to intrude onto other people's property, ther are, to put it bluntly THICK as porcine excrement. It isn't a matter of comparison of their intellect and my own, it is a simple statement that they are stupid, and remains valid even if I'm stupid. In the same way, I could describe somebody as being fat, regardless of whether they are bigger or smaller than myself.

 

I am intrigued to note that I have described somebody as "bilious", as it is not a word that I habitually use.

It was a pit bull that bit my dog's leg off.

 

I didn't say I'd kick a dog that I didn't think was under control, I said I would remove a dog from harm's way, if it approached me, or my dog, whilst not under control, by its owner, with my boot, if necessary.

Personally, I think the kick would be sufficient to deter, but if you think that keeping him under constant threat of having his nuts removed will make him behave better, so be it.

 

You can posture all you like, but the fact remains. My boat is my property, and if you let your dog off its lead and it enters my property, it will be forcibly ejected.

 

Feel free to continue with the threats.

no threats were intended im sorry if you thought that ! i also agree no dog should be sticking its head through your window , and if any dog entered my boat it too would be forcibly ejected ,your boat is your boat i agree, i also dont recall you saying you would kick someones dog if you did i stand corrected

Unless it's Dave of course, in which case, you WILL lose!

 

I think this bully could take a leg off if he got angry...

That is shocking. I have seen pbt going for it twice now. I saw one owner of the pbt light a flame from a lighter and "warmed" it's ball bag. The second time, the owner of the other dog pushed his car key in the pbt eye. It worked and they let go. The second guy then fainted.

im lost for words how did he keep the lighter lit ,or did the dog just stop fighting for a few seconds, , to be quite honest i dont understand what anybody would want to own a shark on a lead anyway , why would any one want a dog with a jaw like a chainsaw ? is it because they look nice curled up in front of the fire ? because they are great with the kids ? is it because they are pretty ? or maybe because they look well ard ?

I choked the dog, until it fell unconscious and let go.

 

It was a bit weird, really, once it locked on to my dog's leg it just went into a sort of daze and stood stock still and, when I put my hand round it's throat it didn't struggle at all, just fainted and let go.

 

But (going back to the original thread topic) it was a fight between two male dogs, with a full set of balls, and mine lost.

 

I didn't call the police or make demands to have the dog destroyed.

 

The owner was at fault, for not having it on a lead and I was a bit disappointed that his offer to split the vet bill was empty but I do know that the dog is always on a lead and muzzled, now.

the problem is nearly always down to the owner, i am a dog owner and the worst thing about dogs is the owners , incidentally my best dog of all time was a lurcher called traveller, best dog i ever had and an important part of my youth

I'd say the problem is always the owner and their inability, or unwillingness, to control their dog.

 

The dog that attacked mine is not usually aggressive but he was forced to share the same restricted space as another intact male and, because he wasn't on a lead, he couldn't be pulled away, when it got nasty (I'd pulled my dog into a gap in the hedge, to let them pass).

 

Things happen and, 10 years later, he still can't count so he doesn't know there's a leg missing and he still points his stump at you, when you ask him to give you a paw.

Dogs are funny things, a couple of years ago we were moored at The Blue Lias and took Magic our black lap for a walk up the flight, there was a boat moored between the bridge and the first lock with a dog on board, Both dogs met, did the normal sniffing thing and we carried on up the flight. Magic was on the lead the other wasn't. A little later we walked back and the dogs again were quite at ease with each other.

Next day we walked up again, but this time the other dog was tie to the tree with a long rope so he couldn't get on to the boat. As we walked by he shot out and pinned onto Magic and these were dogs that were at ease the day before. The only difference was this time he was tied up. The owner shot out and sorted things and no harm was done.

Why would anyone want a land shark with a mouth like a chain saw?…

 

Well in my case it is Because this breed are damn fine dogs, trainable and very clever. They also have a job of which over the years I have been involved in supplying working puppies to specialist handlers. They also protect my home and my family very well.

 

I am also into dog sports and these type’s of dog seem to do better at it than most.

 

As for the lighter business, once a pbt type locks on, the other dog will do the same and they hardly move about at all. All the dog is interested in is severing said limb so it was quite easy for the owner to “warm” his nuts, I was suprised too.

 

Here is my dogs brother who patrols the streets of Nottingham keeping the riffraff in line. He also does meet and greet at the local primary school.

Legend!
