It's everywhere unfortunately. And if it is picked up, the bag is discarded. My boy dives into bushes to bring them out and then shake them ....

Have you tried putting her in your backpack before? I imagine mine would need to be about to croak before he would submit to it, if then, and would be trying to hurl himself out.

And actually on reflection you don't hear of puppy farm dogs savaging people to death. And they don't lead great lives.

It makes you wonder just how common a problem this is with the status breeds. I fortunately don't tend to see them in the country side around me. But would they have been different with better owners. I'm thinking they could well have been,

My dog is very popular with strange dogs apparently, his owner less so😂 I might have been called a horrible old cow a couple of weeks ago as I yanked him miles away from a couple that were striding purposefully towards us with their JR. Honestly, just what is it all about. And they get...

It's only saying hello 🙄

I have hacked out mostly with youngsters. My sister often had under 6s and we often did a 4 and 5 yo. I remember going on 1 hack from the livery yard I was at 12ish years ago was another livery and our two 5 year olds. We were out for quite a while in different places and any problems just...

See, should have had a really tight noseband to keep it's mouth closed 🙄 I hate seeing horses being used for anything nowadays. Sorry.

Weird: I'm on the periphery of a fast growing town. One footpath is a no go now as tarmced over and a cycle/footpath. Never used to see anyone on that. Now full of would be Tour de France riders. Other footpaths within walking distance I usually don't see anyone on. No idea why. No...

Rider too heavy for horse, surely. Sick of seeing it.

I've been feeling crap with a cold so have opted for flat walks on muddy tracks near hills which I have to drive to Not seen anyone. Today popped out round the block as feeling a lot better and almost immediately a complete pair of twits wanted their 2 JRs to say hello to mine. So mine is...

Sadly long gone but a cav me and ex once had was a scream. If he and other dog were given a chew, he would take his and hide under the coffee table with it. He would then come out, go up to the French doors to the garden, bark like mad until other dog left his chew to see what the fuss was...
