Totally with you on this: I am a cat woman, through and through.

Ha Dogs. yes

now i know where that deep finger-nail damage on the back seat of our car originated.
*thinks back to last summer and DG sharing back seat with bouncy jack russel*

Imagine my delight last summer in Cornwall when dog owners were thrown off the beach with their stinking hounds. Depsite signs saying 'dogs forbidden' they blithely assumed this didn't apply to them. There was much laughing as they angrily protested to the unimpressed beach warden, and were sent packing.

I love dogs. But if you substituted 'children' for 'dogs' in your penultimate paragraph, I'd be right with you.

Oh go on DG, do tell them the Alsation and the milk powder fireworks story

I will never forget - or forgive - an episode when I was 15. I had newly washed and ironed skirt on and was going ot meet up with my mates to hang out in the Manchester Arndale. En route I crossed to the local shops, across 'the coppice' which was the quotidien route for everybody to get to the shops. some dog ran at me, leaped up and put its muddy paws on my skirt. I was alarmed and angry and it's stupid cow of an owner said, "He's only a puppy, he's just playing."

No attempt at 'sorry'...

I love dogs. Each to their own.

once, in the company of a couple who run the local boarding kennels and breed gun dogs, I was brave enough to say that I would be very happy to live in a world that had no dogs at all. This did not go down very well and I don't think I have ever been forgiven.
There is also the problem of being allergic to dog hairs. Just one short ride in a car used to transport the owner's dog(s)is enough to make my eyes itch for hours afterwards.

"You are wearing red, aren't you. You shouldn't have worn red. He doesn't like people wearing red." Or perhaps you are carrying a newspaper. "He thinks a newspaper is a threat." Or perhaps the child is running. "He thinks you've done something wrong if you're running, so of course he will chase and bite. You need to keep your children under control." As for slobber, "It's all right, it will brush off when it's dry."

We are expected to adapt our behaviour to dogs.

And to cats. Now if only their owners could keep the cats out of our garden, stop them digging up plants, crapping on the thyme and murdering the wildlife I might be more sympathetically inclined. "But it's in their nature." Yeah, which is why we shouldn't encourage them to breed.

Sorry for the rant.

I have a dog myself. Doesn't live with me, but does stay every now and then. But I hate other people's dogs.

Especially our neighbours. They have 2 enormous german pointers, and live in a tiny flat next to us. They leave the dogs locked up in there for between 6 and 8 hours per day. They let them bark until well after midnight, making no effort to shut them up. They let them start barking before 7am, not making any effort to shut them up. They also *never* put them on a lead, so they viciously bound up to us, barking, with an evil look in their eyes. And the owners never apologise or tell their dogs to stop.

The idiots next door are yet another example of people who think of their dogs and themselves first, ignoring the fact that it's ruining our time at home. They are the kind of people who shouldn't be allowed to keep dogs.

I hate dogs, I'm a cat person.

Also, the chinese should read "gongxi fa cai" (That's standard chinese, your's is cantonese :P)

I don't want to be a pedant but Kung Hei Fat Choi is Cantonese, so unless you live in Hong Kong and Guangzhou you would not know what you were on about. Did you learn nothing from my 'speaks duck' guest posts? Mandarin is the national language understood even by people in Hong Kong. I wonder why I bother, no one ever listens to me, I really do wonder, I'll go now

I have an extremely well behaved little dog. She never jumps up, or slobbers, or hurts anybody, and is just kind, loving and extremely polite. She's helped calm children that have phobias about dogs, and understands if people don't want to be near her, because she is a dog. All my dogs have been raised and trained well. I can't abide humans who don't do the same. I also love cats as well, but some of them can be evil little sh*ts. It's all down to how humans look after them.

Decís que porque un perro te pasó la lengua cuando eras chico, odias a los perros... Me parece muy exagerada tu reacción. Ya no sos más un chico. Deberías comportarte como adulto.

Can u tell me a couple of things about dogs...first if i give them chocolates do they really die? Many a times i find myself at the mercy of street dogs. Let's say me and another guy is walking down the street the person infromt of me will pass by smoothly and when i try to pass the dog starts barking. It happens everytime! Inch by inch they come closer while barking continuously. My tennent has a dog and she is always telling me how to enter my own house. The dog is a bitch and everytime i enter my house she brings her face close to my balls as if smelling something...what the hell is she doing. Is that common! I'm totally freaked out.
