Where's my favourite hobby horse?
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, there it is.
Bastard bull breed owners
Was walking Scoobie through the park earlier, and some tosser comes through the gate a little further up the path, and he's got one of those bastard dogs with him, and it's off it's lead.
He turned left so that he's heading in the same direction as us, but in front of us.
The dog follows him, but then changes it's mind and runs at Scoobie.
I yanked Scoobie up into my arms and shouted at the bloke to call his dog back.
Stupid fucking tosser comes back with my favourite reply "it's ok".
Now, no matter what breed you own, you are responsible for your dog.
If somebody does not want your dog near them, it is your responsibility to keep that dog away from them.
No questions, if someone tells you to take your dog away you take the dog
AWAY!You don't stand there looking like the worlds most gormeless prat shouting "it's ok" at somebody who obviously feels threatened by your dog.
Scoobie is just a little guy, and pretty harmless, but if someone reacted with panic to him being near them I wouldn't question or reassure them, i'd take him away.
So that was it, I turned the air blue shouting at him that it was NOT ok, and he asks me "who are you talking to" looking a bit like he fancied some trouble.
"YOU, YOU C*NT" was the reply, and his face changed somewhat.
I was FUMING, and it must have showed because the guy got an awful less confrontational pretty damn fast.
I told him (well, shouted at him) that i've had two dogs attacked by bull breeds, that I didn't want bull breeds near my dog, and that his mutt should be on a lead.
So then I tell him i'm ringing the police, and he replies "go on then". I get the phone out and start dialing 999, but he starts to walk off. I tell him to stay where he bloody well was and wait for the police, but he says you can send them after me, and walks off down the path.
Cooling down for a second, I decided I didn't want to dial 999 because it wasn't an
emergency (Scoobie was no longer under threat) so I walked out the gate and after a couple of minutes a police car came past so I flagged it down.
I told the police what had happened, and they said they were on the way back to the station, but they'd call through for a unit to go and take a look.
Jo and I went in the park and could see the bloke in the distance (with that fucking mutt still off it's lead), and rather than keep going the way he did (Mr "I don't care, send them after me") he buggered off in another direction and circled back the way he came.
All the way through the park we didn't see a single police car come anyway near.
No wonder there have been so many attacks in that park.
