I know you would report someone who's dog had killed a cat in the dogs garden I simply want to know why and what you would want them to do?
I dont think they would be right to report me! Do you?

Do you think they would be in the right to report YOU as you would do if a dog killed a cat in the dogs own garden?

I cannot see where anyone has labels any dog breed as all the same, Im not sure where that comes into it.
Yes you can get some small furry friendly greys but certainly not very often. And what would you suggest I do with mine that are not cat friendly when a cat is in there garden?

But didn't you know that a dog that is in its own garden is not under proper control
