Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
To get to the stables we go to we have to drive down quite a lot of back roads. Well on the way there this morning we saw a car just around the bend in front of us stop, open the door then shut it and drive off rather fast
When we got round the bend seconds later there was a little dog, looking rather scared in the middle of the road
I said to my OH 'OMG that car's just dumped that dog out'
it looked like a staffy x JRT so we followed the dog as it ran off down the road, I tried to catch it but I couldn't get near it !! It got to the point that I was jumping ditches and trying to coax this little fellow to me but he was having none of it
I eventually followed him to a house (OH was following me in the car) with a car in the drive that looked exactly the same as the car that dumped the dog out
I decided not to follow the dog onto someone elses property but did notice that the dog had a collar with tags on and thought maybe it wasn't dumped then - who would dump a dog and leave their tags on !!
When we got to the stables we mentioned it to the lady there and she said 'Oh yeah, they do it all the time, it's their way of exercising it' she was very despondant about it, she said a few people had approached the owners but he gets very defensive and quite nasty about it (good job I decided not to knock!!)
How? Why? Would you do that??? Apart from anything else it's a one lane back road and the chances of the dog getting knocked over are massive
Stupid man
