So scary! I hope I’d have been quick witted enough to do the same.

I didn't even think about it, just acted on instinct. OH was a bit grumpy about it because he bonked his head on the car on the way out and of course had no idea what was going on. I did apologise once we were in the house and I could explain!

I'd be reporting that thing...sounds awful. well done on the quick thinking.
Same feed merchant as last time....lady in front of me at the checkout was arguing with staff because they won't put puppy adverts on the board, she has a litter of cockerpoos and has only sold 2 - the other 9 she's now planning on dumping on a rescue centre as "she hasn't got time"

Not so much irresponsible, more inconsiderate, at a country store buying horse feed at the weekend and there was a lady in the shop with a Springer that cocked it's leg on a display in the shop and then again on a display just outside the shop. The poor weekend kids had the job of cleaning it up while the lady & her dog walked out with only a small bag of dog biscuits or something. My dog was waiting in the car as I don't feel there's a need to get her out for a 10 minute shopping trip in January.

Owners allowing their dogs to pee indoors and not clearing up is the reason why some garden centres locally have stopped dogs going inside.

I don't want to buy stuff that's been pissed on, whether somebody has tried to clean it off or not.

Quite, and that’s a very good reason why non assistance dogs shouldn’t routinely be taken into shops.

I'd thought peeing on the floor - didn't consider that it was likely to be on the goods also

Indeed, the pissed on stock will have to be thrown away creating a loss as well as extra work which is why I added that the shop only gained the sale of what looked like only a small bag of treats for their trouble.

I was in a Devon town last year, it was a lovely summer's day and a couple came past a paved square with cafe furniture and their large dog had a pee on a chair. It may have been aiming for the chair leg but it size meant the wee just landed perfectly on the seat of the chair and just sort of pooled there. I don't know the outcome, I was only passing but was gobsmacked. I hope nobody sat in it

I buy my wet cat food in the big multipacks. The last lot I got, I couldn’t for the life of me work out why some of the pouches smelt like urine - mice in the house?? mice in the store warehouse?? It now occurs to me that the multipacks are always on the bottom shelf in pets at home, right at pissing level.I'd thought peeing on the floor - didn't consider that it was likely to be on the goods also

Fais pas chier!
I'd never had a dog pee indoors til these 2, both have lifted a leg in Pets at Home. I notified staff, offered to clean up and they have never been taken anywhere bar their walks since bar the vets, where we lingered outside, everybody had a pee. Get inside, one pees in the waiting room, one in the consulting room. Horrific.

Double bubble tonight. Came round a corner and saw a figure outside my house. In darkness. No lights or reflective gear.
'Have you got a dog?' x2
No response.
'HAVE YOU GOT A DOG?'
My dog then barked twice, answering my question for me, so I went back around corner and waited for them to pass. The reason she didn't respond was because she was ON THE PHONE. I may have shouted something waspy....
Then with old dog, big grey LGD type with hackles up like a yard brush, already aroused because a dog in a garden across the road was barking, the guy told it to sit six times, it did not, and he still said 'good boy'

You can't say this without telling us the waspy phrase.

What is a "dry-robe woman"?
AmyMay
Situation normal
One of those women who wears a dry robe to do every day things, rather than use it for what it was designed for.

Bad start to the day today. I read a thread on the local Fb page.
1st time dog owner, 17 week old puppy ate something it shouldn't. Can't afford a vet consultation fee.
Bad enough, but then I made the mistake of scrolling through some of the 160 useless comments posted by idiots. 'Oh, it's okay I give my dog x,y,z to eat all the time. He's fine.'

A poxy consultation fee! Come on!

'I DON'T HAVE EYES IN MY ARSE' is a good one for cyclists who approach fast from behind with no bell and get shitty with you when they nearly ride over your (on leash) dog.
