Cyclists who cycle up behind you (on said path) and then shout or whatever for you and your dogs to get out of the way. I can't hear a bike coming up behind me, I'm deaf in one ear. Would it kill you to get a bell (or maybe NOT cycle on the path?)

People who don’t pick up after their dogs. jake doesn’t often do his poo’s in the park (he has a weird thing about that lol) and I once forgot to take a bag out with us, and of course, typical luck that was the day he decided to do it… so I remembered exactly where it was and went straight home (I live literally a minute walk from the park), got a bag and went back and picked it up… then we carried on with the rest of our walk lol.
People who try to tell me about MY dog, he is mine… I know him, you don’t so don’t tell me what he is like!
People who let my dog jump up on them, when I am clearly telling him not to… that seems to be the cue to encourage him
that does not help with the training at all. People who make assumptions as to why jake is on lead, either because he is aggressive
or because I cant be bothered to train him to recall People who tell me my dog is too skinny (he isn’t, he is just lean and a perfect weight, as well as being young) when they are standing with a dog who resembles a barrel.
People who think they are a dog expert, and look down on those who don’t know as much as them even though they are much older and have had dogs for many more years! Geez, everyone has to start somewhere and im sure they didn’t start of knowing everything! Give people a chance to learn.
People who try and tell me about MY relationship with MY dog, when they know very little about me and cant see me interacting with him, who the hell are they to judge me.
People who think they and their dog is superior, to me and my crossbreed coz they own a pedigree
my god, get a grip! People who get rid of their dog when owning them is no longer convenient or they are no longer of ‘use’.
People who look at my dog as though he is some kind of disease they want to get as far away from as humanely possible.
People who wont let their dogs be dogs, especially when they wont let them interact with other dogs.
People who walk aggressive dogs off lead. there is one who is always in the park in the summer, the woman never has him on a lead and he always goes for any puppies or small dogs… he even tried it with jake once and the woman shouted at ME! jake was onlead, and she was screaming at me to get away. Why the hell should I need to?? she should have her dog on lead if he is aggressive!
think thats them all...

At the moment I have got agreement for a puppy if I am still at home all the time when we have more money free. I'm looking at (random sounding mix, but I have reasons for all) a show-type cocker spaniel, an airedale terrier or a schnauzer. The cocker is pushing his small rules though...

I would like a Dachshund but not sure it would cope with the rough and tumble of two mad setters and a pointer...

people who think that just coz i am young, im not responsible enough to look after my dog... it doesnt help that i look 15 though
but i have done everything for him for the last 8 months, and done the best for him, so its so unfair when people make such comments.

Glad thats not just me then!
Do you ever find that opinion seems to come most often from the people who go somewhere, let there dog offlead and then ignore them for an hour though? I've had much less judgement from people who have obviously trained their dogs
