Teaching your children to be dog aware..

[Obelix]

Yes pete but he also said his dog dishes out MOST of it when being attacked! which implies to me no control over the attacker or the attacked!!

 

basically bad dogs!

 

If you know how to really handle a dog, it will NEVER disobey..

 

Yup. If I tell Roxy she's free she won't hold back.

 

When the other dog clearly has had enough and wants to leg it, I whistle and she comes back. That's called good training.

So the aggresse becomes the aggressor... that's OK then isn't it.

 

Yes it is.

Precisely! they shouldn't be allowed dogs in the first place if they cant control them and that goes for anyone who can't control their dogs behaviour hence the reason that any aggressive dog should be muzzled because clearly we cant muzzle the owners can we!!

 

Shame..

Yea, shame real life gets in the way of your wishful thinking.

 

The fact that my dog has to become aggressive for defending himself is called 'nature'. I know a bit about 'nature', owners of the attacking dogs obviously don't, but learn real fast when their dogs don't recall as ordered, attack mine, then yelp and retreat. They still find it in them to try and abuse me for having an 'aggressive' dog, though, just like you did. Can't be doing the sensible thing and putting their hand up and saying sorry for their dog attacking mine in the first place.

 

Straight back to (my) post #3 with you.

 

In the meantime, no, still no muzzle

And as for abusive comebacks I think you'll find LOOB is doing that to me.

 

You started it dear. But I would have thought you'd practice what you preach and just stand there and take it and muzzle yourself.

 

After all isn't that what you are advocating we should do with dogs?

Yes it is.

 

But why would you do that? why would you allow your dog to 'be free' to attack?

[Obelix]

Where did I say free to attack?

So the aggresse becomes the aggressor... that's OK then isn't it.

 

So if your dog is attacked, you just let it get attacked then?

[Obelix]

Right here..... Dear!!

 

Where did I say free to attack?

 

If you can't provide it, admit you were wrong, and that you tried to intimate that I said it. I let the dog go free to defend herself

You can word it however you like but we all know what you implied.
