Re: Bit of a fright this morning

What a terrible thing to happen to you and your dogs Julie,I agree with everyone here and what theyve said so far.
Its not right that you should have to live in fear of taking your dogs out for the sake of an inconsiderate neighbour and a dangerous dog.
They most certainly should keep it under control and when outside it should be muzzled!!
I hope you get some joy from reporting it.
to you and your dogs ,you must be shook up over it all.

Re: Bit of a fright this morning

Julie, you should have reported it straightaway, both to your local dog warden and the police. Read up on the amended Dangerous Dogs Act and know your rights.
The owner is in trouble if it has bitten you. Don't let this pass, because next time the injuries could be much worse.
Hope you're all feeling a bit better now.

What a frightening episode for you Julie, I do hope that you are all OK now and that the situation can be somehow resolved to prevent any recurrence.

Re: Bit of a fright this morning

Julie, you poor thing, that must have been terrifying for you. I hope you do report your neighbour as that dog is a menace. What if you had had a child with you? it doesn't bear thinking about.
I hope your little dogs will be okay, it must be so upsetting for you.

Re: Bit of a fright this morning

I would definitely tell you to report it. Especially with small dogs the law should be on your side. I've been on both sides, Sophie is dog aggressive, but I would never let her get loose to attack anyone. She's been attacked as well. Do they allow pepper spray where you are? You have the right to protect your doggies and yourself.

Re: Bit of a fright this morning

Big or small makes no difference if a dog is aggressive and out of control, which this one was the owner is accountable.

You should report it not just for your own safety but also for other people.

In this country you're not allowed to raise your voice let alone protect yourself.
