Need a rant!
Sorry, I really need a rant.
I've just got back from Satch's walk. I usually up to a country park near me which has always been full of lovely dog owners. Anyhow, we'd just got back to the carpark and I was about to put Satchmo in the boot, when the old chap appeared with four dogs - a silky, an eldery lab bitch, a lab cross and a springer. The silky, the only one on-lead, dragged the old man across to us and started snarling and growling at Satch. I put Satch in the boot and asked the old chap to keep his dog under control and away from mine. Meanwhile, some poor woman with another springer had pulled up, opened her car door and had the two labs jump
into her car!! So I'm glaring at the old man, she's trying to get his dogs off her and out of her car and then - to my astonishment - he looked at Satch and said "I don't think I'd own one of
those dogs, if I were you! Far too dangerous".
If I hadn't been so angry I'd've laughed at him. I told him he was obviously the model of dog ownership, with such obedient and under control dogs. No offence to silky owners, but it took all my self-control not to boot the little sh*t away from Satchmo. As the old man walked away, I saw it was one of these dogs that conducts all it walks on only its hind feet, half choking itself in the process.
Thanks for letting me rant
